Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly butter two small ramekins or oven-safe dishes, using 1 teaspoon of butter per dish.
Peel the garlic clove, mince it finely, and divide it evenly between the two ramekins.
Chop the parsley and chives finely. Pick the thyme leaves off the stems and set the herbs aside.
Crack two eggs into each ramekin. Be careful not to break the yolks.
Pour 2 tablespoons of heavy cream over the eggs in each ramekin.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of grated parmesan cheese over the top of each ramekin.
Evenly distribute the chopped parsley, chives, and thyme between the two ramekins.
Season each dish with a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper.
Place the ramekins on a baking sheet for easier handling, and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny.
Remove the baked eggs from the oven and let them cool for 1-2 minutes. Serve immediately with toasted bread or a light side salad.
