Let's Get Started

1. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.

3. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and start to brown, about 8 minutes.
4. Add the diced potatoes, vegetable broth, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
5. Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, puree the soup until smooth and creamy.
6. Stir in the heavy cream and heat for an additional 5 minutes.
7. Serve the soup hot, garnished with chopped chives.
