Milwaukee Cheese Soup, Like Sanders’

MILWAUKEE CHEESE SOUP, Like Sanders’

By Gloria Pitzer, as seen in… The Joy Of NOT Cooking – Any More Than You Have To (Secret RecipesTM, St. Clair, MI; Nov. 1983, p. 71)

When I last tried this at Sanders’, where the hot fudge topping was originally made famous as an ice cream accompaniment, I was surprised that it was a ‘white’ cheese soup, as opposed to the traditional yellow cheese mixture that is basically served Canadian-style, in most restaurants.

So, without imposing on my friendship with Jack Sanders, now [1983] Chairman of the Board of the company founded by his grandfather, Fred, I went home to try my hand at a quickie, can-opener, gourmet version.

INGREDIENTS:

10-oz can cream of celery soup

10-oz can cream of potato soup

½ cup coffee cream, light (or Half & Half)

¼ tsp pepper

½ cup crispy, fried bacon (crumbled) – NOT artificial bacon

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

3 TB butter

INSTRUCTIONS:

In top of double boiler, over simmering water combine [ingredients, as listed]. Stir until smooth over the simmering water. Serve piping hot to 4 – maybe 5 – people.
