Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add garlic, onion, and morels; cook, stirring often, until the onions soften and become translucent, approximately 5 minutes. Stir in chicken soup base and flour; cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Add water and cream; bring to a simmer, and cook for 5 minutes.
Puree half the soup in small batches, filling the blender halfway each time. Return the pureed soup to the pot. Cook on low for 10 to 15 minutes. Season with thyme, salt, and pepper before serving this delectable morel mushroom soup.
