Absolutely delicious! I baked the squash in the oven as others suggested and that was wonderful and easy. I did not measure my onions, just chopped up two smallish onions, so I'm sure I had more than 6 T, but I like savory soups, so I did that on purpose. I also only added a couple ounces of Neufchatel cheese - a little less fattening than cream cheese. I added just enough to change the color of the soup and pureed it all together. It was not sweet at all (may have been with all the cream cheese) - it was nice and savory, the way I like it. The cayenne was delicious in it. I make soup from summer squash pretty regularly, but I liked this even better. My husband raved and my kids even liked it - I just added a little milk to their bowl to bring down the spice a bit (they are 3 and 5), but a little dab of sour cream would have been great for a garnish for them too, if I'd had some. I will definately make this many more times...thank you for the recipe!

added a 1/2 block of cr. cheese/1-2 c sour cream... added to butternut squash: 3 potatoes, 1 lg. sw. potato, roasted garlic,chic. stock, 3 sm. apples, extra onion and 1 c hvy. wh. cream. Fresh mint on top would be nice! NOTE: leave part of this (maybe 1/4 of it) unpureed...or at least just partially pureed. We liked having some small chunks/texture with each bite. Top w/ nutmeg!

LOVE THIS SOUP!!! Have made it several times now. Even those who are opposed to squash that I have made it for really like it.

Delicious! Definitely half or quarter the amount of cream cheese you add. Also, I tried making it with acorn squash. Not quite as good, but not a bad option.

This was not good at all. The flavor of the cream cheese, which I had cut down to just one block, was entirely too overwhelming. It had a sickly sweet aftertaste. I will attempt to make this again without the cream cheese and without butter (I had used some butter to saute the onions).

I just made this today and we loved it! I followed advice from others to bake the squash because it brings out the flavor and makes it easy to work with. I softened the onions in butter then added the water and bouillon cubes with the spices. I used rubbed sage because I didn't have marjoram and added a pinch of nutmeg. Also upped the cayenne just a bit to our taste. Then I scooped out the baked squash and added to the mix w/ the cream cheese. I used my hand blender to puree it altogether. Excellent recipe! To make a beautiful presentation you could swirl a tsp. of cream around the top of the soup. If you love squash this is a must try. Thanks for the great soup recipe.

Favorite comfort food recipe!!! Love it. I made it the same as the recipe except I use Italian seasoning (that has marjoram in it) instead of just Marjoram because that's what I had on hand. Yum!

I've been making this for several years and it's a hit every time! I baked the squash first, then scoop it out into the chicken broth. I only use half the cream cheese.

I love this soup! It's spicy and creamy and just plain delicious. I wish butternut squash came pre-cut - the only downside to this recipe is all the chopping.
