Bake potatoes until soft, then peel. Mash or cube the potatoes depending on the desired consistency for the soup. In a large soup pot, combine butter and flour to make a roux. Cook for 1 minute, then slowly whisk in the liquids. Add salt and pepper, potatoes, cooked bacon, and cheese. At the last minute, stir in the sour cream.
