Submitted by Bellinda

"This soup is so good and comforting. I doesn't really taste like pumpkin. It has just the right amount of sweetness. You can use evaporated milk instead of the cream."

Good and comforting soup. I used heavy cream instead of whipping cream and I also added some cinnamon to make it a touch sweeter. Thanks!

Very good and different soup. I subsituted molasses for the honey, and also used half cream and half milk. Thanks for sharing!
