Zippy Chipotle Butternut Squash Soup image

The combination of butternut squash and apples in this soup reminds me of autumn, which is my favorite season. The spicy chipotle peppers add some zip. Leave them out if you prefer less heat. -Andrea Gilkenson, Wausau, Wisconsin

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out bland and watery.

I added a bit of extra cumin and chili powder to give the soup a little more kick.
