Wow, not only does this breakfast casserole taste delicious it smells wonderful too! The croissants are what makes this special. They add a fabulous buttery flavor to the dish that other breakfast casseroles can lack. The ham and bacon are a tasty pair and the glorious cheese is melt-in-your-mouth delicious.

Steps:
- 1. The evening before, gather and prep ingredients.
- 2. Spray a 13" x 9" baking dish with butter flavored cooking oil spray or grease with real butter.
- 3. Evenly distribute torn croissants and bread in baking dish.
- 4. Evenly distribute chopped ham, minced shallots, baby Swiss and Monterey Jack over bread; set aside.
- 5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 4 eggs and about 1/2 cup of the milk, until well blended; whisk in the salt; add remainder of milk in several stages, whisking well after each.
- 6. Slowly pour milk mixture all over the casserole.
- 7. Scatter small amount of extra-sharp cheddar over casserole. Lightly press down on the casserole with large spoon or impeccably clean hands (as Julia Child would say!) to help the bread soak up the liquid.
- 8. Cover dish tightly with aluminum foil; place in refrigerator overnight.
- 9. The next day, approximately 1 1/4 hours before mealtime, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- 10. Remove casserole from refrigerator; temporarily remove foil; scatter finely crumbled bacon over top.
- 11. Cover with foil; place casserole dish on a baking sheet; bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, remove foil, rotate baking sheet and bake, uncovered, for an additional 30 minutes.
- 12. Allow to cool for a few minutes, then scatter chives over the top. Serve immediately. Cover and refrigerate leftovers.
