Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it with cooking spray.
- Gently clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth or paper towel to remove any dirt.
- Carefully remove the stems from the mushrooms. You can use a small spoon to help scoop out any remaining stem pieces, making sure to create a cavity for the filling.
- In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and dried basil. Mix well until the ingredients are thoroughly combined and the mixture is smooth.
- Using a small spoon, fill each mushroom cap with the cream cheese mixture. Be generous but ensure that the filling doesn’t overflow.
- Place the stuffed mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is bubbly and slightly golden on top.
Once done, remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the mushrooms to cool slightly before serving.
Tips:
- Choose mushrooms that are roughly the same size to ensure even cooking.
- Clean the mushrooms gently with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt without making them soggy.
- Allow the cream cheese to soften at room temperature for easier mixing.
- Feel free to add other seasonings or herbs like garlic powder or chives to customize the flavor to your liking.
- For added texture, sprinkle some breadcrumbs on top before baking.
