Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or similar-sized casserole dish.
Trim the stems and any loose leaves from the Brussels sprouts, then cut them in half (or quarters if they are large). Rinse them and pat dry.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt until evenly coated.
Arrange the seasoned Brussels sprouts in an even layer in the prepared baking dish.
Drizzle the heavy cream evenly over the Brussels sprouts.
Sprinkle the shredded Parmesan and smoked Gouda cheeses over the top, ensuring they cover the Brussels sprouts evenly.
In a small bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with the melted butter until the crumbs are evenly coated. Sprinkle this mixture over the top of the cheese layer.
Transfer the dish to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are tender, the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy as a main course. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
