In a large pot, cook onions until translucent. Stir in flour and cook for a minute (will be very pasty). Slowly whisk in stock, stirring well as you add to remove lumps. Whisk in milk, salt & pepper, and cook, stirring until thick and bubbly (5-10 minutes depending on your pot and burner).
Add potatoes and 3/4 cup cheese, stirring until cheese melts. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream. Return to medium-low just to heat - do not bring to boil.
