Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the mixture thoroughly until the eggs and cream are fully combined, and a light froth forms on top.
Prepare any optional fillings (diced ham, cooked bacon, onions, or bell peppers) by cooking or chopping as needed, and set them aside.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt, swirling it around to coat the pan evenly.
Once the butter is melted and bubbly (but not browned), pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1 minute, until the edges start to set.
Use a spatula to gently pull the edges of the omelette toward the center, allowing uncooked eggs to flow to the edges. Repeat this around the skillet until the omelette is mostly set but still slightly runny on top.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette. If using optional fillings, spread them over the cheese.
Carefully fold the omelette in half using the spatula, covering the cheese and fillings.
Cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through to your liking.
Slide the omelette onto a plate, cut it into wedges if serving multiple people, and enjoy hot!
