Heat oven to 350º F. Tear bread into small pieces. Spread pieces onto baking sheet and bake until crumbs are dry and pale golden, about 12 minutes. Cook sausage, add mushrooms.

Toss sausage, mushrooms, onion and celery in a large bowl with bread crumbs. Add chestnuts, rosemary, salt, pepper to taste, cream and chicken broth. Add additional cream and chicken broth if necessary to make stuffing moist. Stuff turkey and bake.

Note: If baking outside turkey, heat oven to 400º F. Add 1/3 c. chicken broth and place in a 9" x 13" buttered baking pan. Bake until crusty and golden on top, about 30 minutes.
