In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Slowly whisk in the flour with a fork, and cook, stirring constantly until the mixture is thickened. Slowly stir in the milk, making sure lumps do not form as you add it. Continue stirring over medium-low heat, until the mixture is thick, about 3-5 minutes.
Add the milk mixture to the stockpot, then stir in the shredded gouda cheese, and cook the soup until it is heated through. Serve topped with green onion and bacon. Enjoy!
