Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Melt about 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add finely chopped shallots and minced garlic, sautéing for 30 seconds.
  3. Add halved Brussels sprouts to the skillet, and cook them for approximately 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Once Brussels sprouts are tender, season with salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, and mustard powder. Pour in heavy cream and stir until combined.
  5. Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish. Sprinkle crumbled bacon and shredded cheeses on top.
  6. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
  7. For make-ahead, allow to cool after baking, cover, and refrigerate. Reheat at 350°F (175°C) until steaming and bubbly.
