For a vegan version, substitute the butter with olive oil and the chicken broth with vegetable broth. Coconut milk can be used in place of half and half for a richer flavor. Garnish with toasted pumpkin seeds or a swirl of coconut cream for an elegant presentation. The soup can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.
