Bob Evans Cheddar Baked Potato Soup
Bob Evans Cheesy Potato Soup is comfort food at its finest. A thick cheddar-based soup that is just oozing with cheesy flavor filled with little bites of fluffy baked potato. This is a soup that is perfect for those cold nights when you just want a warm blanket and a hug!
Scrub potatoes and bake in preheated oven at 400º for 1 hour. Cool in ice bath and peel potatoes (the hardest part of the recipe). Dice into small cubes. (You can peel the potatoes before you bake - I would just cover them with foil if you do.)
5 medium Russet potatoes
In a Dutch oven, stir the cheese soup and the milk in a Dutch Oven over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer.
2 cans condensed cheddar cheese soup, 4 cups milk
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and broth. Whisk broth into the soup mixture and add cheddar cheese, Velveeta, salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic salt.
2 cups chicken broth, 2 tbsp cornstarch, 1 cup cheddar cheese, 1 cup velveeta cheese, 1/4 tsp coarse sea salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, 1/4 tsp onion powder, 1/4 tsp garlic salt
Bring the soup to a simmer and let cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
Add the cooked potatoes and let the soup simmer for 10 minutes longer.
Serve with chopped chives, bacon bits, and additional shredded cheese, if desired.
