My daughter-in-law, a gourmet cook, served this cream of mushroom soup recipe as the first course for a holiday dinner. She received the recipe from her mom and graciously shared it with me. Now I'm happy to share it with my own friends and family. —Anne Kulick, Phillipsburg, New Jersey

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter

1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper

2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) chicken broth

1 cup half-and-half cream

Directions

1. In a large saucepan, heat butter over medium-high heat; saute mushrooms and onion until tender.

2. Mix flour, salt, pepper and 1 can broth until smooth; stir into mushroom mixture. Stir in remaining can of broth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat; stir in cream. Simmer, uncovered, until flavors are blended, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
