Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
Brush the corn and jalapeños lightly with olive oil.
Grill the corn and jalapeños, turning occasionally, until charred on all sides, about 10-12 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
Cut the kernels off the corn cobs and set aside. Dice the grilled jalapeños, removing seeds if less heat is desired.
In a large pot, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the cumin powder, grilled corn kernels, and diced jalapeños. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Add the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for 10 minutes.
Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper.
Simmer for an additional 5 minutes until the soup is heated through.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped cilantro and lime wedges. Serve immediately.
