In a medium mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the heavy cream. Whisk them together until the mixture is well blended and slightly frothy.
Season the egg mixture with salt and black pepper, whisking again to incorporate the seasoning evenly.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow the butter to melt fully and coat the bottom of the skillet.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting it gently to ensure that the eggs spread out evenly across the surface.
Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to set. Use a spatula to carefully slide around the edges, ensuring the omelette doesn't stick.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over one half of the omelette. As the omelette continues to cook, the cheese will melt.
Once the edges of the omelette are fully set and the top surface is mostly cooked, use a spatula to fold the omelette in half, covering the cheese.
Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to allow the cheese inside to fully melt, then carefully transfer the omelette to a plate.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
