"Are you ready for this? FINALLY! Dolly has revealed her recipe for the YUMMY Dixie Stampede Soup in her cookbook called DOLLY'S DIXIE FIXIN'S. I spent almost $30 just to get the REAL recipe for this soup. There is a less than desirable copycat recipe out on the web. It's just not the same. ENJOY! and leave comments please. :) **Remember, they adapted this recipe for a few servings, not a few thousand servings**UPDATE: I would recommend that you make a white/blonde roux with the butter and flour before add the rest of the ingredients. This will help with the thickening and keep lumps out. It could take a good 15 minutes simmering after adding the half and half to see desired consistency."

What is the corn syrup for? Wondering if sweetener is fine as corn syrup is not a good choice for a diabetic.

As I was cooking this and getting a really good look at the ingredients, I was thinking that it wasn't going to have enough flavor. I was so wrong. It was delicious. I did make a few changes, but nothing substantial. I used 1/2 of a medium onion and 2 cloves of garlic for the onion and garlic powders. I also used 2 cups of chicken broth instead of splitting it up between broth and water. I wanted to use up my heavy cream so I used 1 cup of heavy cream and 1 cup of half-and-half. I left out the corn syrup because we didn't have any. My veggies were fresh carrots and potatoes, finely diced, and cooked for awhile in the broth before adding the creams. Finally I did take out a bit of the broth/cream mixture and mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with it then added it back to the soup to thicken it up.I just can't tell you how pleased we were with the final product. This is definitely a keeper.

I am enjoying this soup now and it is wonderful! I followed the recipe and started with a roux and it turned out just the same as at the Dixie Stampede. The only thing I did do was my husband said he wanted it thicker so I added some potato flakes and he LOVED IT!!!!

We went to the Dixie Stampede show last night, so when I saw this I knew I had to try it--while the "real" version was still fresh in my head-- It is spot-on. My only "fix" is to use mixed vegetables that are higher quality. I used a generic brand and found that even pureed, the corn and green pea hulls didn't break up very well. They messed up the soup's creamy texture. My husband suggested next time to use only potatoes, carrots and green beans. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

I don't know what I did wrong when I made this recipe, but it did not taste anything like I thought it would. I am going to try it again next time with Veg all. This time I used frozen veggies and cooked them first.

This soup is EXACTLY like the Dixie Stampede soup! The only thing I did different the second time making it is that instead of adding flour, I added an envelope of country white gravy mix after adding the broths. It keeps me from browning the butter and flour, but it give it a perfectly creamy roux! I learned this trick from an old homemade potato soup recipe.
