Roast mushrooms in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir onions, remaining cloves minced garlic, and thyme into melted butter; cook and stir until onions are completely soft, 7 to 10 minutes.

Combine mushroom mixture and onion mixture in the bowl of a blender or food processor with about 1/2 of the heavy cream; blend on low until combined yet slightly chunky.

Bring the soup to a simmer and cook until the flavors are thoroughly combined, at least 15 minutes.
