Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Clean the mushrooms using a damp paper towel and gently remove the stems. Set aside the caps and finely chop the stems.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems, minced garlic, and finely diced shallot. Cook, stirring frequently, for 5-7 minutes, or until softened and most of the liquid has evaporated. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked mushroom mixture, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, cream cheese, chopped fresh parsley, thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.
Using a small spoon or your hands, carefully fill each mushroom cap with the stuffing mixture. Press gently to ensure the filling stays in place.
Place the stuffed mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the mushrooms.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
