  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, about 5 to 7 minutes, breaking it up as it cooks.

  4. Add diced tomatoes, black beans, corn, and beef broth. Stir well and bring to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat and let the soup simmer for about 10 to 15 minutes to meld flavors.
  6. Stir in heavy cream and cubed cream cheese until melted and smooth.
  7. Add shredded cheddar cheese while stirring until melted. Season with salt and pepper as needed.
