2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, diced
4 baking potatoes, about 2 1/2 pounds
2/3 cup flour
6 cups milk
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup sour cream
Preheat oven to 400F. Pierce potatoes with a fork and bake for 1 hour or until tender. Cool. Peel potatoes and coarsely mash them. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until soft. Sprinkle flour over onion, gradually add milk and whisk until smooth. Cook over medium heat until thick and bubbly. Add mashed potatoes, cheese, salt and pepper. Stir until cheese melts. Remove from heat. Stir in sour cream. Serve with toppings of choice.
