Ingredients:

Serving

5 cups chopped leeks (white portion only )
1/4 cup butter
5 cups chicken broth
4-1/2 cups half-and-half cream
1/2 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt

In a Dutch oven, saute leeks in butter until tender. Add broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 25 minutes.
Strain, reserving broth in pan. Place leeks in a blender with 1/2 cup of broth; cover and process until smooth.
Return to the pan. Stir in 3 cups cream. Combine the flour, salt, pepper and remaining cream until smooth; stir into soup. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium.
Cut Brie into small pieces; add to soup in batches, stirring until most of the cheese is melted. Garnish with chives. Yield: 12 servings (2-1/2 quarts).
