Directions

Prep 5 minCook 10 min

1
Heat a medium pot over medium-low heat. Add the olive oil and butter, allowing the butter to melt. Stir in the shallot and cook until translucent, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute.
2
Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Whisk in the broth, milk, cream cheese, salt, and pepper. Cook, whisking continuously, until the mixture begins to thicken but does not boil. Remove from heat and add the cheddar cheese, whisking until the soup is smooth. If the base seems too thick, add a splash or two more milk.
3
Add the spinach and let sit for 5 minutes before serving, just until the spinach has wilted. Serve the soup topped with croutons or a few extra sprinkles of cheese, if desired.
