  • 1 cup grated parmesan-reggiano cheese, divided

Baking Directions:

Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add shallots and morels; sauté until shallots are tender, about 6 minutes.

Add asparagus and 1 1/4 cups broth.

Bring to boil, cover, and cook 2 minutes.

Stir in cream and 2 tablespoons.

Simmer uncovered until sauce thickens slightly, about 4 minutes.
