Steps

Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Cook the onion and garlic until soft.

Add the broccoli and broth. Simmer until the broccoli is very tender.
3
Blend part of the soup with an immersion blender, leaving some small pieces.

Tips

Do not boil after adding the cheese, or it may turn grainy.
Shred your own cheddar for the smoothest soup.
