A lot of people are saying that you need to add more chicken stock. I think this is because people are following the recipe instead of the video. The recipe only calls for 1 cup while in the video, it says to add 3 cups of chicken stock. So just make sure to follow the video instead of the written instructions! 👍🏼

I used 3 cups of chicken broth but kept the Cayenne the same. 1/4 teaspoon seemed to added just the right amount of spiciness to combat the sweetness. I also doubled the amount of bacon, you can never have enough bacon!

I added 1 tbsp cream cheese in the end instead of heavy cream and it was amazing!
