The Ingredients You’ll Need to Make this Cheese Soup recipe are:
- Borden® Sharp Cheddar Cheese
- Butter, Heavy Cream (or milk)
- Onion
- Chicken Broth
- Salt
- Pepper

Note: It is best not to use pre-shredded cheese for this as it won’t melt as well as the block cheese will.
While Brady handles the cheese grating, Katy is getting started with the first step over on the stovetop.
I am specifically using Borden® Cheese here because it is delicious, all natural, and is made by a cooperative of over 8,000 family owned dairy farms across the United States. The cheeses they offer include: Mild Cheddar, Mozzarella, Mexican, Swiss, Sharp Cheddar, American, Colby Jack, and more. They are available in singles, shreds, chunks, slices, strings, and snacks! This is creamy, flavorful, delicious cheese made in our homeland and it just makes every dish better.
This cheese soup is as simple as can be to make.
- Melt butter in a medium stock pot over medium heat.
- Add onions and cook, stirring often, until browned.
- Add in broth, cream, and seasonings.
- Reduce to simmer and cook, stirring often, for about ten minutes.
- Add in shredded cheese and continue cooking, stirring constantly, until cheese is melted.

My oldest child, who loves cheese, will love trying this cheese soup recipe. He loves anything cheese and is slowly learning to cook. This recipe will be perfect for helping him. Thanks, Christy!!
This is a recipe that has perfect timing for us. Our son just had the dreaded “right of passage” wisdom teeth removal. He’s just now at the stage where we can start giving him “real” and “warm” food again. He loves everything “cheese”. If I purée the broccoli a bit, it will be a perfect add in….he’s going to be so happy to have something with flavor again! Thanks for posting this recipe!
I happily accept the challenge!!
I’m a cheese-aholic so absolutely going to try your cheese soup!
