instructions
    1

    Begin by melting the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Allow it to melt completely.

    2

    Add the minced garlic and chopped onion to the melted butter, sautéing for about 3–5 minutes, until they are fragrant and the onion is translucent.

    3

    Sprinkle in the flour and stir well to combine. Cook this mixture for an additional 2 minutes, stirring continuously to prevent burning.

    4

    Gradually pour in the chicken broth, whisking constantly to break up any lumps from the flour. Bring this mixture to a gentle boil.

    5

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and add the heavy cream. Stir continuously for about 2 minutes to combine thoroughly.

    6

    Mix in the cheddar cheese one cup at a time, stirring until each cup is fully melted before adding the next.

    7

    Add the ranch seasoning mix and adjust seasoning to taste. Allow the soup to simmer gently for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

    8

    To serve, ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley.
