Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed

  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional toppings: shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, sour cream, chopped chives

Instructions

  3. Add potatoes, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
  4. Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup to a regular blender in batches.
  5. Stir in milk and heavy cream. Heat through, but do not boil.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use whole milk instead of milk. You can also add a clove of garlic to the onions for extra flavor.
