Cream of Mushroom Soup for Two
"This is so easy to put together, and it's delicious. You will never go back to canned mushroom soup after trying this recipe! I have made this using both the evaporated milk and the half and half cream and I have even used a mixture of both. It's all up to each individuals preference."

Step 4
Add the wine and cook until the liquid is reduced to half.
Step 5
Stir in half the mushrooms and 2 tablespoons flour and mix until everything is wet and coated, cook for about half a minute, until slightly bubbling.
Step 6
Add the broth, a little bit at a time, until it has thickened to a gravy consistency.
Step 7
Slowly stir in the cream or evaporated milk and warm through.
Step 8
Cream the mixture with an immersion blender, then add the remaining mushrooms.
