Brussels Sprouts Gratin with Caramelized Shallots

We’ve put a sophisticated new spin on a traditional Thanksgiving vegetable, transforming brussels sprouts into a creamy gratin. This dish offers an enticing contrast of flavors and textures: Caramelized shallots offset the slight bitterness of the brussels sprouts, while cream and two kinds of cheese add richness. A bread crumb topping lends irresistible buttery crunch.
