Cut crusts from bread slices, and place crusts evenly in bottom of a lightly greased 13- by 9-inch baking dish. Layer evenly with bread slices, sausage, Brie, and Parmesan cheese.

Whisk together 5 eggs, 2 cups whipping cream, and next 4 ingredients; pour evenly over cheeses. Cover and chill mixture for 8 hours.

Whisk together remaining 2 eggs and remaining 1 cup whipping cream; pour evenly over chilled mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until casserole is set. Garnish, if desired.
