Sometimes, life's littlest indulgences are the most rewarding. That's certainly the case with these creamy soup recipes! It doesn't take much effort to whip up a bowl of velvety smooth soup, but once you sit down to enjoy it, you'll be so happy you did. Whether it’s Ree Drummond's creamy, dreamy pumpkin soup or her decadent potato soup topped with crispy bacon, this list has tons of options to make you feel warm and cozy inside.
While some of these soup recipes require a blender, you can also reach for an immersion blender to make things silky smooth. But don't worry too much because the handy kitchen tool is so easy to use. "You can blend straight in the pot or cup," Ree says about her immersion blender. Of course, other creamy soups don't require any special tools at all. They simply rely on heavy cream or a mixture of decadent ingredients for that dreamy texture.
