Steps:
- Heat a small amount of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are tender, about 20 minutes. Add the beef broth, water, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaves, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the crock pot. Cover the crock pot and heat on high heat while the onions are cooking. Add the onions to the crock pot and set the heat to low. Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 3-5 hours or until the flavors have melded. Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Slice the baguette into thin slices and place on a baking sheet. Place in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F until toasted, turning once during the cooking time. Place the toasted bread slices (1-3 slices) in the bottom of individual soup crocks or bowls. Sprinkle the toasts with the cheese. Remove the bay leaves from the crock pot. Ladle the hot onion soup over the bread slices so the cheese melts. Serve hot.

I received an email this morning called "The Recipe Secrets Newsletter" and this was the featured recipe. It is slightly different from the other one that is posted on Zaar, so I thought I would post this one too. I haven't tried this yet but I'm hoping it's close to the real thing!

Steps:
- Slice the onions into rings and saute in butter in a skillet until tender.
- Turn crock pot on to low and put in the cans of beef broth, bay leaves, dash of garlic powder and salt and pepper, 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce and 3/4 cup of water. When the onions and butter mixture is tender, then also add them to the crock pot.
- Cover and cook for at least 3-5 hours on low. At this point you may want to taste the soup and see if you would like it a little weaker--if so add a little water or chicken broth. Also, at this time remove the bay leaves and discard them.
- When about ready to serve, slice bread into thin slices and toast in oven on 350°F or in toaster oven until just crusty. Put toasted slices (1-3) in bowl and cover with the cheese (adjust cheese to your liking). Then cover bread and cheese with hot soup. The cheese will melt and the bread will rise to the top.

Tips:
- Use a good quality beef broth. A good broth will make all the difference in the flavor of your soup. Look for a broth that is made with real beef and has a rich, savory flavor.
- Caramelize the onions slowly. This is the key to getting a deep, rich flavor in your soup. Don't rush the process, and let the onions cook until they are a deep golden brown.
- Use a variety of cheeses. A combination of cheeses will give your soup a more complex flavor. Try using a mix of Gruyère, Swiss, and Parmesan cheeses.
- Don't skimp on the croutons. Croutons add a nice crunch and texture to the soup. You can make your own croutons or use store-bought.
- Serve the soup hot and bubbly. French onion soup is best enjoyed when it is hot and bubbly. Serve it with a side of crusty bread or a green salad.
