Broccoli And Goat Cheese Soup Recipe

1 Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until well blended and cooked through, about 1 minute. Gradually add the broth mixture, stirring constantly; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Add the broccoli and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 7-8 minutes. Let the mixture cool about 5 minutes.
2 Pour the soup in batches into a blender and puree. Return the soup to the pan; stir in the cheese and pepper sauce and cook over low heat until the cheese has melted.
