Ingredients:
- 18 medium-sized mushrooms
- 3/4 cup cream cheese
- 3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley

Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Preheat oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). |
| 2 | Clean the mushrooms: Using a damp paper towel, gently wipe the mushrooms to remove any dirt or debris. |
| 3 | Remove stems: Carefully twist off the stems from each mushroom cap. You can either discard the stems or set them aside for future use, such as making stock. |
| 4 | Prepare the filling: In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, grated parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, rosemary, thyme, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture is smooth. |
| 5 | Fill the mushroom caps: Using a spoon or a piping bag with a large tip, evenly distribute the cheese mixture into the hollowed-out mushroom caps, filling each one generously. |
| 6 | Arrange on baking sheet: Place the stuffed mushrooms on a lightly greased baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart for even cooking. |
| 7 | Bake: Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake the mushrooms at 350Β°F (175Β°C) for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the cheese filling is golden and bubbly, and the mushrooms are tender. |
| 8 | Serve: Once baked, remove the stuffed mushrooms from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Garnish with additional chopped herbs if desired. Enjoy these savory bites while they’re still warm! |
