Ingredients:

Serving

2 lbs butternut squash
1 medium onion, diced
3 carrots, diced
3 stalks celery, diced
3 garlic cloves, diced
2 medium potatoes, diced
4 (284 ml) cans chicken broth
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper (to taste)
1/4 tsp nutmeg (to taste)
1/4 tsp cinnamon (to taste)
2 -3 tbsp margarine
1/2-3/4 cup light cream
1 tbsp sour cream
1/4 cup bourbon ( whiskey)

Directions:

Bake the squash in the oven with a little water on a cookie sheet until fork tender.
Let cool & scoop flesh from peel & mash.
In a saucepan (or pot big enough to make soup), sautee in margarine, the onions, celery, garlic, carrots & potatoes until soft.
Stir in the salt, pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Stir in the soup broth or stock.
Stir in the cooled, mashed squash & simmer for a few minutes to let the flavors mix.
Ladle the mixture (in small batches) into the blender and puree until smooth and creamy, then transfer to a big bowl. Repeat until all mixture from pot has been pureed.
Return the blended soup back into the pot and reheat slowly, and stir in the cream and bourbon (if desired.).
Once reheated, ladle into bowls and add a tablespoon of sour cream to garnish (or stir in is good, too).
Enjoy!
