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.

Looking forward to trying this recipe with lots of cheese; and love the addition of broccoli and ham. Thanks for your great recipes.
This looks yummy! We love lots of cheese in our Broccoli Soup, so I’m sure will love your cheese soup. We sit down to dinner together every night.
I’m in! My daughter and I try to eat dinner together as often as scheduling allows. Between her work schedule and my dialysis treatments, it isn’t as often as we would like but every chance we get, we cook and eat together!
I grew up eating dinner together as a family and when I got married and had children I tried to do the same thing, but with a military husband it wasn’t always easy to do that. Since the divorce and the children growing up and getting jobs it seems like it is even more difficult to do so but I’ve never backed away from a challenge and I don’t intend to now! Going to make sure we eat dinner as a family every night that my boys do not work from this evening forward.
I am planning a birthday meal for family this week.
