Scoring the Brussels sprouts helps them cook more evenly and allows the sauce to penetrate.
Don't overcook the sprouts in the boiling water, as they will continue to cook in the oven.
For a richer flavor, use a combination of cheeses such as Gruyere, cheddar, and Parmesan.
A sprinkle of breadcrumbs on top before baking adds a nice texture.
