Ingredients
- 1 pound cream cheese
- 4 cup chicken broth

- 1 cup jalapeños, chopped
- 1/2 cup bacon, cooked and crumbled
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Prepare the Soup Base: In a large pot, heat the chicken broth over medium heat until warm.
2. Add the Cream Cheese: Cut the cream cheese into cubes and whisk it into the warm broth until smooth and creamy.
3. Incorporate the Flavors: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped jalapeños. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the cheese is melted and the soup is heated through.
4. Season to Taste: Add salt and pepper to your liking, adjusting the seasoning as needed.
5. Finish with Bacon: Stir in the cooked, crumbled bacon and serve immediately for a spicy, cheesy delight.
Notes
For a thicker, more chowder-like consistency, you can mash some of the cream cheese cubes against the side of the pot as they melt. Alternatively, for a smoother texture, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until it reaches your desired consistency.
