This dish is SO awesome.. I've made it for Thanksgiving the past several years and finally joined Allrecipes so I could rate it. It's top notch, savory, creamy and just absolutely to-die-for. I use fresh pearl onions and then boil/shock/peel as I have never found frozen - but the results are always A-1.

YUM!! Halved the recipe for my husband and myself, but wanted to make it a complete meal so w/10 minutes left of cooking time I added some thawed pre-cooked shrimp (seasoned w/salt, pepper, and garlic powder) and poured a little more milk and butter over it; then served it over brown rice. It was SO good. Thanks for the amazing & simple recipe!

I made it ahead of time. Instead of heavy cream I used evaporated milk & flour to make a rough. Then added onions and baked just before serving. Awesome !

I began making these for Thanksgiving 2007. My husband and brother-in-laws' families have always had onions at holiday dinners, and mine did not. They asked for some on the table, and I had no idea what to look for in a recipe. I was so fortunate to find this one! This recipe hit it out of the park! The first time I made them I par-boiled a TON of pearl onions and popped them out of the skins. I have come to find that the men didn't even noticed when I made the switched to jarred onions. Rich & delicious...

Excellent. I have been looking for this recipe or Thanksgiving for years. This is the keeper. Because of space issues in the oven, I had to bake it the night before, reheat in the microwave then freshen up the crust with a few more crackers and butter for a last crisp in the oven. It was the first dish to go. Even my 10 year old loved it. I will also try adding some garlic for an Italian flare during the year.

Absolutely WONDERFUL!! I have never made nor had anything like this and I couldn't get enough! I brought this to a pot-luck and when I went back for 2nd's I got a little of some of the other things so I wouldn't look like a wierdo getting more of what *I* brought! Very easy and although I tend to change recipies I followed this exactly but did add the crushed garlic croutons on the top like one of the other members suggested. YUMMY!!!

This is a delicious recipe. I followed Rookie's advice on the onion and the 2nd time I made it, I used 1 cup less of ritz crackers. This has become a requested dish for Thanksgiving in our family.

I highly recommend this recipe. We loved it. It isn't what you think, it has a little bit of a sweet taste. We used frozen pearl onions and it was perfect. I didn't change a thing!!

Phenomenal! So simple and absolutely fantastic! Made it to accompany steak and my husband couldn't stop talking about how great it was. I added a little garlic and used white cheddar cheez its for the topping. Thanks! Update: Made it again and used Ritz crackers... not as good as with the white cheddar cheeze its (to us)... still great!

having had something extremely similar to this several times, I was excited to try out this recipe. I did alter it slightly by making a roux to thicken the sauce, and followed other reviewer's suggestion of simmering the cream with a crushed garlic clove and some bay leaves. The only thing that seemed off when the recipe was on the table were the onions themselves: they were like little oniony water balloons. Kinda yucky, and several of my family members commented on this. They were, however, sopping up the sauce with dinner rolls as it was excellent. I don't know if it would have helped to thaw the frozen onions first, or pierce them with a fork before baking, maybe? Next time, I might use thich slices of vidalia or something instead.

This was really, really good. I used frozen pearl onions and added a few extras. I simmered the cream with 2 bay leaves, one clove of garlic (peeled and smashed), chopped fresh Italian parsley and a dash of nutmeg for about 10 minutes. Discarded the bay leaves and the garlic and proceeded with the recipe. All these years I have been using the typical cream of celery condensed soup recipe and it pales in comparison. I'll never go back now that I have this recipe!

This was delicious. My husband had eaten all of the "buttery round crackers" secretly, so I substituted saltines and left the salt out of the recipe. After baking, I sprinkled some crumbled garlic croutons over the top. I'll serve this wonderful, rich side dish again!

I made this today for Christmas dinner with a standing rib roast and Yorkshire pudding. It was the perfect accompaniment. This was so good. I made the recipe exactly as written, only thing different was I raised the oven temp to 400 for the last 20 minutes, but just because my oven was slow and everything else was almost ready. Will make this again for sure!

I made this for Thanksgiving and it was incredible! It is extremely rich so I will not be making it on a regular basis but is great for holidays when you don't mind the extra calories! I usually make creamed onions with cream of mushroom soup so this was a nice treat.

I already like pearl onions, so it was pretty good, but very heavy. I could only eat a little bit with my main meal.
