    | 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. | 2. Place the endive stalks in a greased, shallow 1 1/2 quart oven proof cassserole dish. Dot with the butter.

Increase oven heat to 350 degrees. | 6. Heat the reserved drippings on medium heat and add the flour. Stir until bubbling, but again, do not burn! Gradually pour in the half and half (or heavy cream.) Heat the mixture and stir for approximately 5 minutes until almost boiling and thickened. Pour the sauce over the endive. | 7. Chop up the bacon into little pieces and sprinkle over the endive along with the Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs. | 8. Bake, uncovered, for about 15 minutes or until bubbling and lightly browned on top. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
