Butternut Squash Soup

I simply wanted to cook up a butternut squash
and ended up making this delicious squash soup.

Ingredients:
6 tablespoons chopped onion
4 tablespoons butter
6 cups peeled and cubed butternut squash
3 cups water
4 cubes chicken bouillon
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese

Directions:
In a large saucepan, saute onions in butter until tender.
Add squash, water, bouillon, marjoram, black pepper and cayenne pepper. Bring to boil; cook 20 minutes, or until squash is tender.
Puree squash and cream cheese in a blender
or food processor in batches until smooth.
(I use one of those hand held boat motors).
Return to saucepan, and heat through.
Do not allow to boil.
