In a large soup pot, over medium-high heat, add the butter and chopped onion.
Cook until softened, stirring frequently to prevent burning (about 5-7 minutes).

Add the frozen chopped broccoli and chicken broth (Reserve 1 cup of broth for later.)
Bring the mixture to a boil.

Once boiling, reduce heat to medium and let it simmer in a covered pot for 20 minutes or until broccoli is softened.

Add the Velveeta cheese, shredded cheese, half and half, and garlic powder. Stir together and allow it cook for about 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and combined.

Combine the cornstarch and reserved 1 cup chicken broth in a small bowl. Then add it into the soup and let it cook for about 5-10 minutes or until the soup is of desired thickness.

The soup will continue to thicken up slightly as it cools.
