Parmesan stuffed mushrooms

Parmesan stuffed mushrooms are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that combines the rich flavors of cream cheese, Parmesan, and fresh basil. Perfect for parties or a tasty snack, these bite-sized treats are sure to impress your guests.

Ingredients:

6 oz cream cheese
170g
3 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
16g
25 mushrooms
250g
1/2 tbsp basil
2.65g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
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.
2. Prepare the Mushrooms:
- 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.
3. Mix 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.
4. Stuff the Mushrooms:
- Using a small spoon, fill each mushroom cap with the cream cheese mixture. Be generous but ensure that the filling doesn’t overflow.
5. Arrange and Bake:
- 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.
6. Serve:
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.

Parmesan stuffed mushrooms are a delightful addition to any meal or gathering. With their creamy, cheesy filling and savory mushroom caps, they are sure to be a hit with everyone. Follow these tips and enjoy making (and eating) this tasty appetizer!
