  9. Pour it back into the pan, remove from the heat and stir in cream and nutmeg.
  10. Season to taste.
  11. Place the gnocchi in a large baking dish and cover with the sauce. (Precook the gnocchi to package directions if you are using storebought gnocchi.)
  12. Bake in preheated oven until very hot and starting to brown on top.
  13. About 7-10 minutes.
