This was the best squash soup recipe I have ever had. Very elegant and smooth tasting, the only change I made was I used whole milk as opposed to heavy cream. Heavy cream would be too rich for me, whole milk worked just fine. My husband liked it too, it's a keeper!

I tried this soup with the yellow squash from my garden. Absolutely wonderful. A great comfort food.
