Broccoli Cheese soup

submitted by Alicia

1/2 cup butter or margarine
3/4-1 cup finely chopped onions
6 cups seasoned chicken broth or 6 cups water with 1/3 cup chicken bullion
4 cups milk
3 cups shredded processed american cheese
3-4 Tbsp. cornstarch mixed with about 1/2 cup water to thicken soup
1 small head of broccoli, chopped

In a large pan over medium heat, melt butter and saute onions until tender. Do not brown. Add chicken broth and milk and bring to a boil. Thicken to desired consistency with cornstarch and water mixture. When soup is hot, add cheese a little at a time. Stir constantly until cheese melts. Do not add cheese all at once as it will separate. Stir in broccoli.
