What can I do to a chicken noodle soup recepie to make it be creamy?

I want to make creamy chicken noodle soup, I keep finding really good recepies for just chicken noodle soup, but I want that thicker consistency. Can I substitute cream of chicken soup or something along those lines for some of the chicken broth? will that thicken it up or should I take another approach? Thanks so much!

1. you could add fresh heavy cream just before serving
2. I would add a can of cream of chicken soup for sure! That sounds so good right now.
3. Make a white sauce with cream and add in there. 2Tbs. flour 2Tbs butter 1 cup cream melt the butter slowly add in the flour then slowly add in the cream(should we warmed in micro) you can of course double that depending on what you want.
4. Use the heaviest cream you can find.
5. Add heavy cream and use a hand blender to mix and smooth out the texture. Unless you want it to remain chunky style then don't use the "boat motor".
6. Yes, it sounds crazy, but my Grandma used to add warm milk to any kind of soupy dish that we wanted thicker. She used 2% I think
7. I add Cream of Chicken soup, but I also saute my celery, onion and carrots in some butter and flour before adding to my soup, it works wonders! All the yummy flavor sweats out and you get a nice thickener to boot.

9. Make a roux out of butter and flour, stir that into the soup. You can also add some heavy cream for the flavor.
10. You could add some Heavy Cream, Milk with Roux (equal amounts of Flour/Butter) Sour Cream or just add some slurry (cornstarch with ice cold water) just remember, once you have added your thickening adgent, re-adjust your seasonings as the properties will change when you thicken your soap (they tend to soak up alot of flavors). One time, in a pinch at my friends house, I had the Chicken Soup all ready and then I found out that the elderly lady I was cooking for wanted something creamy, I just threw in a can of Cream of Potato Soup, I could've also added the Cream of Mushroom, Celery, Tomato or Onion..............ANY of those would've added that cream level and extra flavor which is always welcome. Hope this helps you out today, Happy Sunday to you!
11. Add a can of condensed milk, and a little cream corn starch. Instant mashed potatoes would work also.
