1. Preheat the oven to 425F. Cook the kale, covered, in boiling salted water until very tender, about 15 minutes. Rinse under cold running water; drain, pressing out all liquid with the back of a spoon. Chop fine.
2. Melt 2-1/2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Stir in the flour. Cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes. Whisk in the hot chicken stock. Cook until very thick, about 2 minutes. Add 1/4 cup of the cheese, the salt, pepper, nutmeg, and hot pepper sauce. Stir in the kale. Transfer to a buttered shallow baking dish.
3. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Stir in the bread crumbs. Cook, stirring constantly, until golden. Spoon over the kale mixture. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Bake until bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes.
