Baby Doe's Soup

This soup was from one of our favorite restaurants in Dallas. Sadly, it is there no more. It is super easy, and super yummy!

8 cups Milk


2 ts Tabasco sauce

4 ts Worcestershire sauce

4 tb Chicken base (powder or granules, I like Knorr)

16 oz Cheez Whiz

6 tb Cornstarch

1/3 cup Warm Water

1 cup Beer (Baby Doe's used to use either Shaefer or Lone Star)

Cayenne pepper to taste



Combine the milk, Tabasco, Worcestershire, and chicken base in a stock pot. Bring it to a boil, stirring frequently.



Add the Cheez Whiz, after warming it up in hot water or in the microwave. Mix in well.



Dissolve the cornstarch completely in the 1/3 cup of warm water. Add it to the soup, which should start to thicken almost immediately. Reduce the heat a bit and stir in the beer.



To serve, ladle into bowls and dust with cayenne pepper and top with some chives. Croutons do quite well in the soup as well
