Transfer broccoli mixture (with any remaining water) to food processor and puree until smooth.
Melt butter in 3 quart saucepan (use the same one to reduce the amount of clean-up you have to do). Add flour and stir until smooth and bubbly.
Slowly add broth to flour mixture. Stirring constantly, heat to boiling. Boil for 1 minute.
Stir in broccoli mixture, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Reduce heat.
Add cream and cheese. Stir until cheese is dissolved.
