Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 pieces large button mushrooms
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel. Carefully remove the stems and set them aside. Place the mushroom caps on a baking sheet.
Chop the mushroom stems finely.
In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once heated, add the chopped mushroom stems and garlic, cooking until the mushroom stems are soft and any liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and let it cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, 3/4 cup of Parmesan cheese, sautéed mushroom stems with garlic, fresh chives, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.
Fill each mushroom cap generously with the cream cheese mixture, creating a slight mound on top.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese over the filled mushroom caps.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
Garnish with additional chopped chives if desired and serve warm.
