Instructions
- Prepare the Casserole Dish: Grease a 9×13 inch casserole dish with butter, or spray with non-stick spray.

- Assemble the Casserole: Sprinkle optional cheese over the top and pour the egg mixture evenly over the layers.
- Refrigerate: Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours.
- Bake: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake covered with foil for 35 minutes, then remove foil and bake an additional 10-15 minutes.
- Make the Hollandaise Sauce: Blend egg yolks, cream, lemon juice, mustard, cayenne pepper, and salt. Slowly drizzle in melted butter until smooth.
- Serve: Drizzle hollandaise sauce over servings of the casserole.
- Store Leftovers: Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days. Reheat hollandaise sauce gently.
