Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

- Roast in the preheated oven, stirring a couple of times to ensure even cooking, for 30 minutes.
- Melt butter in a heavy-bottomed stockpot over medium heat. Add leeks and onion and season with salt and pepper. Cook until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add chicken broth and roasted cauliflower and garlic. Cook until cauliflower is tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Add whipping cream and puree soup with an immersion blender until smooth. Cook until heated through, about 10 minutes.
- Serve topped with Cheddar cheese and bacon bits.
