• Sprinkle a layer of your choice of cheese.
• Repeat layers until casserole dish is full.
• Pour heavy cream over the top of it, allowing it to seep down into the cracks.
• Sprinkle breadcrumbs over top.
• Melt remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and sprinkle just enough over the breadcrumbs to lightly moisten.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• If using Gruyere or swiss cheese, sprinkle a very small amount of nutmeg over crumbs.
• Place in 400 degree oven for 20 minutes, until cheese is melted and breadcrumbs are golden brown.
• Let stand a bit before serving to allow cheeses on the interior to firm up a bit.
