Cook: Creamy homemade mushroom soup

Creamy Mushroom Soup

Difficulty: 3/5

I make some non-bake chocolate cheese cake the other day and the results was good. The chocolate cake is very smooth and creamy, so decided to invite a few friends over to my place to share the cake and the calories, hehe!

Recipe for chocolate cheesecake can be found here:

We also decide to turn this mini gathering into a cooking get-together. One of my friend decided to try out one of the roast chicken recipe and so, i decided to make some baked cauliflower and mushroom soup to go with her chicken.

We had great fun cooking together and it was a great meal. Her roasted chicken was baked to perfection and very yummy. And i love how my mushroom soup turns out, very smooth and creamy.

6. 50ml of fresh milk
