Preheat oven to 400?. Pierce potatoes with a fork; bake at 400? for 1 hour or until tender. Cool. Peel potatoes; coarsely mash. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Place flour in a large Dutch oven; gradually add milk, stirring with a whisk until blended. Cook over medium heat until thick and bubbly (about 8 minutes).
