We definitely got a violent shove into winter this year and it’s dang cold already, so you know I’m making eating soup, just like this broccoli cheddar soup recipe. I’m not a huge fan of the cold, but on the plus side it is soup season!
We’re a soup family and I think just by looking at my website you’ll be able to notice that pretty quickly. This broccoli cheddar soup recipe is actually a remake from one I did like 10 years ago. The broccoli cheddar soup picture was dark and just needed a refresher, so here we are!

Broccoli Cheddar Soup Recipe
1 stick of unsalted butter
1 peeled and small diced yellow onion
6 finely minced cloves of garlic
3 thinly sliced leeks, rinsed
1 cup of all-purpose flour
6 heads of trimmed fresh broccoli
128 ounces of chicken stock
2 cups of heavy whipping cream
2 pounds of shredded cheddar cheese
sea salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste
Worcestershire and Tabasco sauce to taste
Makes 2 gallons
prep time: 20 minutes
cook time: 45 minutes
Procedures:
Add the butter to a large pot over medium heat. Once melted, add in the onions, garlic and leeks and cook until lightly browned and translucent, about 6 to 8 minutes.
Next, stir in the flour until combined in to make a roux.
Add in the broccoli and chicken stock and bring to a boil and cook the broccoli just until al dente, or slightly crunchy.
Using a hand blender pulse the soup until it becomes slightly chunky or until the desired chunkiness or smoothness is achieved.
At this point ensure the soup is thick. If it is not, you may need to make a separate roux or slurry and whisk it in.
Pour in the heavy cream and mix in the cheddar cheese until combined and melted in.
Finish by seasoning with sea salt, pepper, Worcestershire and Tabasco sauce.
Serve with extra shredded cheese.

2:07 "Hmm, what is that earthy flavor I'm tasting"
I never thought I would say this about a soup that has broccoli in it, but this looks really good! (Must be the ton of cheddar swaying it for me 😆)
Dat blender tho. 😳
Yum soup! What a comfort! Add some pancetta delicious 😋❤️… Thanks Billy! For another beautiful recipe.
Looks absolutely divine!! With all that butter, cream and cheese I wouldn't call it light, but it is sure to be delicious!! Thank you for another winning recipe!
Hi there, delicious soup , need to try make it. Like your channel and recipies, i liked the grater you use if may i ask what brand is it?
Billy!! Love, love this recipe, thanks!! I have a request, could you make a panettone and panettoncini video! Pleeeease! I'm obsessed w that, I've made it many times and followed different recipes, but I need a real chef approach… I know it's a long process, but not complicated. I'd love it if you could do that and any other Christmassy italian inspired baking. You're rocking every week w your vids. Thanks 😊 merci
Alright you're back talking in the videos I'm really behind on my video so in the same day I was like three of yours sorry LOL
Looks delicious 🤤 thx for recipe
My soup was not thick, what should I have done to thicken it more? Think the 128 oz stock was too much?
I love this soup so easy to make. Thank you for your videos
I did not have leeks so I used a Vidalia and a yellow onion.
When I cook, I clean out the refrig. I added a little left over asparagus and in addition to cheddar, i added a little piece of swiss and some romano. A glug of dry white wine and finish with a splash of sherry.
Also used Red Mill potato starch(instead of flour) just because I had it. Used Half and half cuz that is what I had.
DELISH!!!
Thanks
Your videos saved my marriage lol 😆
I just made this. added celery and carrots and left it chunky. Delicious 😋
That was a teaser!
This is going down tomorrow!
