Instructions:

1. Cook Potatoes:

2. Blend Potatoes:
   - Use a potato masher or immersion blender to partially blend the cooked potatoes in the pot. You can leave some chunks for texture.

3. Make Roux:
   - In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
   - Stir in the flour and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture turns a light golden brown.

4. Thicken Soup:
   - Gradually whisk in the milk and heavy cream to the roux mixture, stirring constantly until it thickens.

5. Combine Soup and Roux:
   - Pour the thickened roux mixture into the pot with the partially blended potatoes. Stir to combine.

6. Add Sour Cream and Cheese:
   - Stir in the sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and dried thyme until the cheese is melted and the soup is creamy.

7. Season and Simmer:
   - Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the soup to simmer on low heat for an additional 10-15 minutes to meld the flavors.

8. Serve:
   - Ladle the loaded baked potato soup into bowls.
   - Garnish each bowl with crumbled bacon, chopped green onions, and any additional toppings you like, such as more shredded cheese or a dollop of sour cream.
