¼ cup butter
1 onion, chopped
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 (10.5 ounce) can chicken broth
2 cups milk
1 ½ cups grated Gouda cheese

Pour chicken broth and milk into the pot; reduce heat to medium, and bring the mixture to a simmer. Stir shredded Gouda cheese into the liquid; cook and stir until the cheese melts completely.
Place broccoli into a microwave-safe dish; cook in the microwave until softened, 3 to 5 minutes.
Stir broccoli into the soup.
Season the soup with nutmeg, salt, and black pepper to serve.
