  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • CREAM SAUCE:

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/8 teaspoon white pepper

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°. In a large bowl, combine the Brussels sprouts, butter, salt and pepper; toss to coat. Transfer to a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes or until Brussels sprouts are tender, stirring occasionally.
