Ingredients
- 1 (2 lb) butternut squash
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 2 cups water
- 4 chicken-flavor bullion cubes
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, cubed
Instructions
- Peel the butternut squash and cut into 1-inch cubes. Place in the bottom of a 3 1/2 to 4 quart slow cooker.
- Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent. Add the cooked onion to the slow cooker, along with the water, bullion, thyme, pepper and cayenne pepper.
- Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, until the squash is tender.
- Add the cream cheese to the slow cooker and allow to cook for 30-45 minutes.
- Working in batches, transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth. (Alternately, use an immersion blender and blend the mixture in the slow cooker.). Return the soup to the slow cooker to keep warm.
