Easy Creamy Pumpkin Soup Recipe

This recipe makes a  thick, smooth and creamy pumpkin soup. It is one of my favorite soups, probably because of how easy it is to make yet, it turns any meal into a fine dining experience.

More popularly served during the time of Thanksgiving, but why wait?

To create the heart design: Using a teaspoon, drop some circles of cream on the surface then get a toothpick and run it through the middle of the circles. Now you have a perfect soup for Valentine’s dinner.
