Butternut Squash Soup

I know this sounds like old people food but it really is delicious.

1/2 chopped onion
1/4 c butter or margarine
saute together
Add
6 C. butternut squash cubed
3 C. apple juice
1 C water
1 t chicken bullion
1/2 t salt
1/2 t dried marjoram (this is one of those spices in your rack that you don't know what to do with)
1/4 t pepper
1/12 t. cayenne pepper (that is not a typo, you really just need a tiny bit)
Boil for 20 minutes or until squash is soft.
Puree with a mixer
Add
1/2 of a brick of cream cheese
heat through
Garnish with swiss cheese and croutons
