This soup was a big hit at our Thanksgiving Dinner this year! I did not add the dumplings. Keep in mind this is a rich soup. That said, I would serve a small portion as a starter. I would also make the entire soup the night before ~ withholding the cream. The next day heat the soup thoroughly and whisk in the cream. ! Serve piping hot with a few croutons. EXCELLENT!

I had bought some raw chestnuts and roasted them - lots of work but worth the difference in price. This soup is a great way to use those nuts without too much more work. I left out the cream and the dumplings as a way to save on calories and what I ended up with was a rich creamy soup with a touch of sweetness that warmed us and had us scraping our bowls. I did this as a lark and my family loved, loved, loved it. Even the 4 year old.

We have made this recipe for many holidays and always get rave reviews. We have found that jarred chestnuts are the way to go. Frozen dumplings work fine too.

We've made this dish during the holidays since 2000/2001. When we've brought it over to thanksgiving dinner when all of the family gets together, it's usually the thing that disapears first when people get up for seconds! The quatre d'epices in the dumplings really give it that holiday flavor. Highly recommended.

Great soup, and was a hit for my Christmas dinner. However the 10 minute prep time is way off. Only could find raw chestnuts so had to roast and peel myself. Peeling was not easy, and I had to use several family members to get the job done. Even without the roasting, plan on taking longer to make soup and dumplings. Even with the extra work even my kids loved the soup and I would consider this soup a special dish always.
