My good friend, Donna Kimmel, gave me this recipe. Her family always has it on Christmas day. It's rich, thick and delicious! It's a wonderful comfort soup to have on a cold winter's day.

How To Make kimmel christmas cheese soup

  • Step 1
    Melt butter; sauté onions, celery and carrots until tender. Add broth; cover and simmer 45 minutes.
  • Step 2
    Add potato soup, cheese, parsley, Tabasco, salt and pepper; bring to a low boil. Do not let it burn. (The cheese will stick to the bottom and burn--ruining the soup.)
  • Step 3
    Add sour cream and simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Step 4
    Add sherry and stir. This serves 12-16 people.
  • Step 5
    The soup can be kept warm in a crockpot during your celebration.
