Begin by preheating your oven to 325°F.

Cook Brussels sprouts in boiling water until tender when pierced, then drain.

Smash sprouts until chunky and add salt and pepper. Then add a dash of nutmeg, if desired (highly recommended!), stir in cream and about 1 cup of shredded Cabot Vermont Sharp Cheddar or Cabot Extra Sharp Cheddar.

Spoon mixture into a buttered 8 x 8 baking dish and cover with the remainder of cheese. Bake for about 25 minutes or so, until golden brown.
