This is the best little cheese soup recipe inspired by Chef Jasper Mirabile,Jr. and Wisconsin Cheese. The onions, variety cheeses, chicken broth and wine- marry so well together in this recipe. Great served in a cup, top with whipped cream and fried bacon pieces. Nice to serve at club or ladies luncheon.
