Ingredients
- 5 cups fresh broccoli cut into small pieces
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 8 ounces cream cheese cut into cubes
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 1/2 cups cheddar cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prep the Ingredients: Start by washing and cutting the broccoli into small, bite-sized pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
- Melt the Butter: In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. The aroma of melting butter will have you feeling excited!
- Combine the Base: Add the chicken broth, heavy cream, cream cheese, and seasonings (including garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper) to the pot. Stir until everything is well combined.
- Add the Broccoli: Once the mixture heats up, stir in the broccoli pieces. Let it cook for about 15 minutes, or until the broccoli is fork-tender.
- Incorporate the Cheeses: After the broccoli is tender, gradually stir in the Parmesan cheese, allowing it to melt into the soup. Then, add the cheddar cheese and stir until it’s all melty and gooey.
- Taste and Adjust: Give your soup a taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. If the soup is too thick, you can always thin it with a bit of water or more chicken broth.
- Serve and Enjoy: Ladle the soup into bowls, and if you want an added touch, sprinkle with additional cheese or a dash of extra thyme. Enjoy your cozy bowl of deliciousness!
