# What You’ll Need to Make This:

→ Filling and Topping

01 - 1.5 kilograms baby mushrooms, rinsed
02 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
03 - 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
04 - 60 milliliters bread crumbs
05 - 60 milliliters finely grated Parmesan cheese, plus extra for topping
06 - 115 grams cream cheese, softened
07 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, plus extra for garnish
08 - 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
09 - Kosher salt, to taste
10 - Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
11 - Cooking spray

# How to Prepare:

01 - Preheat oven to 200°C. Lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray. Remove mushroom stems and finely chop. Arrange mushroom caps, hollow side up, on the prepared baking sheet.
02 - In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add the chopped mushroom stems and cook, stirring frequently, until most moisture evaporates, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until aromatic, approximately 1 minute longer. Add bread crumbs and sauté, stirring often, until lightly toasted, around 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Allow mixture to cool slightly.
03 - Transfer the bread crumb mixture to a large bowl. Incorporate Parmesan cheese, cream cheese, chopped parsley, and thyme. Season with salt and pepper, then mix thoroughly until well combined.
04 - Generously fill each mushroom cap with the prepared filling. Sprinkle additional Parmesan cheese over the tops.
05 - Bake filled mushrooms until softened and the tops are golden, about 20 minutes.
06 - Transfer baked mushrooms to a serving platter and garnish with extra chopped parsley before serving.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Allow the filling to cool slightly before combining with cheese to ensure a cohesive mixture.
