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 Tbsp
- vegetable oil
- 2 Tbsp
- minced garlic
- 1 pkg
- cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 c
- parmesan cheese
- 1 pinch
- black pepper
- 1 pinch
- onion powder
- 1/2 tsp

How to Make Cream Cheese Mushrooms
- 1Preheat 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
- 2Heat 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.
- 3When 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.
