Creamy Corn Chowder

My kids really like this one. I got this recipe from Our Best Bites.

2 T. butter
1/4 cup flour
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup milk (tastes best with 2% but skim works and makes is very light)
3 red potatoes chopped, skins on
1 onion chopped
2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
5 slices cooked bacom
1 cup of frozen corn

Melt butter and add flour, make a roux.  When combined add chicken broth and milk.  Add potatoes, onion and garlic.  Cook until tender.  Add bacon and born and cook until hot again. Top with shredded cheddar and cheese and extra bacon if you so desire.
