This is a quick and easy soup that my whole family loves. I make it every year when ramps are in season. Serve with a baguette or croutons.

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium shallots, minced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup warm milk
3 cups vegetable broth
1 (5.2 ounce) package herbed cream cheese

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a pot over medium heat. Cook shallots in the melted butter until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in flour and mix until it forms a paste. Whisk in milk, 2 tablespoons at a time. Cook, stirring constantly, until a thick roux forms, about 2 minutes.
