Braised Brussels Sprouts with Cider and Bacon

Made to recipe except used all cider instead of half chicken stock/half cider.  Nice combo of flavors & textures and liked the little bit of cream to finish.  

I served this with ham for Christmas dinner and this surprised the brussels sprouts skeptics in the group.  I made it exactly as written, and kept it on low heat for a while afterward since one dish took longer to finish than anticipated.  Will definitely do this again!
