  5. Cook the soup for another 5 minutes, or until it thickens slightly.
  6. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and well combined.
  7. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the sour cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Serve the soup hot, garnished with extra shredded cheddar cheese and chopped fresh parsley if desired.
