Buttery Onion Soup

 A perfect soup for a special dinner. I would suggest serving a cup of this soup rather than a bowl , its rich and very filling. Taste is delicious, smooth ,creamy, velvety  & buttery. I have served it with both oyster cracker and croutons and prefer the croutons, especially if they are home made croutons. Yummy good!
