Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and grease a baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
Trim the Brussels sprouts by cutting off the stems and removing any damaged outer leaves. Cut larger sprouts in half for even cooking.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the Brussels sprouts and sauté for 6–8 minutes, until they are slightly softened and golden brown on the edges.
Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet. Cook for an additional minute until fragrant, then season with salt and black pepper.
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream. Stir well to combine, then add the cream cheese. Stir continuously until the cream cheese has melted and the mixture is smooth.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and evenly combined.
Transfer the Brussels sprouts mixture to the prepared baking dish. Spread it out in an even layer.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and melted butter. Mix well until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the Brussels sprouts casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crispy.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Optionally, garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish or a vegetarian main course. Enjoy!
