My family says that they will not invite me to family get-togethers unless I bring these with me. I am always asked to 'bring more next time'.

Ingredients

  • 12 large whole fresh mushrooms
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 package cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 1 pinch onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

How To Make cream cheese mushrooms

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350° F and spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray. Clean mushrooms with a damp paper towel. Carefully break off stems and discard the tough end. Chop the stems extremely fine
  • Step 2
    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and chopped mushroom stems to the skillet. Fry until all moisture has disappeared, making sure that you don't burn the garlic. Set aside.
  • Step 3
    When garlic and mushroom mixture is no longer hot, add cream cheese, parmesan cheese, black pepper, onion powder and cayenne pepper. Mixture should be very thick. Using a little spoon (I use a 1/8 tsp. measuring spoon)fill each mushroom cap with a generous amount of filling. Arrange mushrooms on cookie sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes or until mushrooms are piping hot and liquid starts to form under caps.
