Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 3 units Garlic cloves
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
- Optional toppings: shredded cheddar cheese, bacon bits, or chopped parsley
Instructions
Prepare the broccoli by washing it thoroughly and separating it into small florets.
In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour the chicken broth into the pot and bring it to a gentle boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 10-12 minutes until they are tender.
Using an immersion blender, puree the soup directly in the pot until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a standard blender, blend until smooth, and return it to the pot.
Lower the heat to medium-low. Stir in the heavy cream, cream cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Continue stirring until the cream cheese is fully melted and incorporated into the soup.
Add salt, black pepper, and onion powder. Taste the soup and adjust the seasonings as necessary.
Allow the soup to simmer for an additional 5 minutes to let the flavors meld together. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with optional toppings like shredded cheddar cheese, bacon bits, or chopped parsley, if desired.
