Yummy Tomato Basil Soup for a rainy night

Yummy soup to warm your heart on a foggy, rainy night.

Ingredients



2 (28 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
 18 fresh basil leaves, minced
 1 teaspoon sugar
 1 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup butter or margarine

Directions


In a large saucepan, bring the tomatoes and broth to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Add basil and sugar. Reduce heat to low; stir in cream and butter. Cook until butter is melted.

This recipe was from http://www.allrecipies.com/


My own little twist on this delight:
**** I also have used one can crushed tomatoes and one large whipping cream container and it was really creamy, with one chicken bouillon cube and about 2 tbs basil and omit the butter, very good too!!

Serve with crusty bread and share with friends(if you are feeling like it, or you may want it all to yourself!!!)
