Oh, this was good. Really easy, too! As another person recommended, I cut the sugar and the cream cheese approximately in half. It is very rich.

Very yummy, 4 stars due to my opinion of too sweet and too cream cheesy. Made it a second time and used 2/3 block cream cheese, 1/4 c. brown sugar, added some nutmeg, cayenne pepper (because I like a kick) and the slightest touch of curry. Also used a lot more black pepper. Didn't use all of the broth because I like it thick! Thank you for an excellent recipe - I served mine with 1/2 an asiago bagel and a sliced honeycrisp apple.

I have made this for several years now for Thanksgiving dinner at the request of many of the "eaters". Over the years, I've found an easier way of making this there is a competition for the oven. Use cubed squash instead, and throw ALL of the ingredients in a crock pot for 8 hours on low. In the end, it'll look gross, but then scoop it out into a blender and throw it in a pot to simmer. It's so much easier and you can free up your oven for something else!

This got a thumbs up by all around here. I used a whole onion and added some salt. We ate it hot but will try cold next time. Delish!

I Loved this recipe. I did add to it 1/2 tsp. curry powder and 1 tsp. cinnamon, and just 3 T of brown sugar. I felt the curry took it over the top. Yummy. Thanks-Char

So SO good! I also did not find it to be too rich, but I do have a sweet tooth. The cinnamon was a great touch-also adding sour cream at the end is a MUST! Use light cream cheese for a very healthy but very filling soup!

Fabulous soup! It's creamy and delicious, and easy to make too. To cut down on the total time, I used peeled and cut squash and cooked it in the broth on the stove (veggie broth to make the soup vegetarian). Cooked for 30 minutes, and then used the immersion blender right in the pot to blend the ingredients. A beautiful bowl of soup with not too much effort. Thanks!

I didn't have acorn squash only butternut. I liked the idea of using cream cheeses instead of cream. Butternut squash is already sweet (as are onions) so no sugar was added to mine. In addition I added cumin, ginger, and cardamom seed, which balanced the flavor that I felt was too oniony. I also used vegatable broth. Overall a tasty recipe. I did not find it to be too rich as some have stated.

This was excellent soup!! I used honey instead of sugar and it was great but a little too sweet. I would even suggest quartering the amount of sweetener because the squash added a sweetness of its own.

Soup was delicious!! Went a little heavy on the black pepper, and it gave it the perfect touch. Will definitely make this again in the future!

I made this for a very large group and I was really surprised by the reaction it had. Everyone was talking about it weeks later and how good it was. I did make a few changes, following the tips of previous reviewers. I put half the asked amount of cream cheese and I also added less broth. How much broth added all depends on personal taste, but I thought the full amount was unnecessary. Only 1 Tbs. of butter instead of 3 too.

I am a huge fan of butternut squash soup- it reminds me of home and my mom's cooking :) I like to try different variations on th "classic" and this is a great one! Like another review, I added some ginger, yellow curry powder and a bit of turmeric. My fiance hasn't been a fan of any butternut squash soup up until now, because he thinks it's too sweet... But I think this one be just be right!!

I was so thrilled with this recipe, I made it again within the week. It is a delicious way to get Vitmin C, antioxidants and good old fiber. I drink it warm from a cup. Great for those blustery fall nights.

So far, the best acorn soup recipe I have made. I gave it 4 stars only because I have tasted better in resaurants and am striving to find the same to make. This was so easy, I really didn't follow the amounts of anything, only the ingredients. It was yummy.
