Serves: 6
Ingredients
  • 4-5 cups of chopped broccoli
  • 1½ c. chicken broth
  • 3 c. milk
  • 1 c. heavy cream
  • ¾ c. flour
  • ¾ c. butter
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • ⅛ tsp. pepper
  • 2 c. grated cheddar cheese
Directions
  1. In a saucepan, cook the broccoli in the broth for 5 min.
  2. In a different pot, melt the butter and dissolve the flour in melted butter to make a paste.
  3. Add milk and cream to butter mixture, stirring constantly. Add salt and pepper; bring to boil and cook til thickened.
  4. Add cheese; stir. Add broccoli with broth.
  5. Stir and serve.
  6. At the end when the soup is ready, I use a hand puree mixer and blend some of the broccoli up. We often have this with grilled cheese sandwiches, and it's yummy to dip them in!
