Years ago there were L.S. Ayres' stores and they had "Tea Rooms" in them. It was one of the places my grandmother used to take me as I was growing up. They were mostly tiny places,but made you feel so special to go there. I recently came across this recipe from them and remember eating it sitting at a table with my grandmother. Thought I would share this good recipe!
6 tbsp butter or margarine
6 tbsp all purpose flour
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup light cream
3 cups chicken broth

Melt the butter in a saucepan. Blend in the flour and then stir in milk, light cream, and chicken broth. Cook over medium heat stirring constantly till the mixture thickens and comes to a boil. Reduce the heat and stir in finely chopped cooked chicken and the dash of pepper. Return the soup to boiling and then serve. Makes about 5 cups.
