- 1 cup cream
- ¼ cup flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 ½ cups grated cheddar cheese

Instructions
- Brown the ground beef in a large soup pot, drain grease. Add the diced onion and green pepper and cook for 2-3 more minutes.
- Add the garlic, jalapeno, corn, black beans, diced tomatoes, chili powder, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and beef broth. Bring to a boil. Turn heat to low and simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes.
- Whisk together the flour and cream. Bring the soup back up to a boil over medium low heat, then stir in the cream mixture, then the milk. Boil for at least a minute to thicken the soup.

Notes
You can adjust the heat by eliminating the red pepper flakes or using just half a jalapeno. Or you can add more of both if you like it spicy!
