Notes

Texture Boost: For a thicker soup, you can add 1–2 tablespoons of flour when sautéing the mushrooms and onions, or stir in a slurry of cornstarch and water before adding the cream.
Make It Heartier: Add diced potatoes or cauliflower for more substance and texture.
Cheese Swap: Try Gruyère or provolone if you want to change up the flavor profile.
Leftovers: Tastes even better the next day! Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Serving Tip: Pair with crusty bread or toasted buns for dipping—just like a burger on the side!
