Filling
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 3 cups Herb Pub Cheese
- 4 tbsp half-and-half
Mushrooms
- 40 white button mushrooms
Toppings
- Slices of provolone cheese (40 slices, one per mushroom)
- 1 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
- Prep Mushrooms: Preheat your oven to 375°F. While waiting for the oven to heat, rinse and thoroughly dry the mushrooms. Remove the stems from each mushroom cap and gently scrape out the gills with a spoon to create more space for the filling.
- Make Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs, herb pub cheese, and half-and-half. Stir until the mixture is well combined and creamy, ensuring an even filling texture.
- Fill Mushrooms: Place the prepared mushroom caps on a lined baking sheet. Generously fill each cap with the creamy filling mixture, packing it in snugly. Top each stuffed mushroom with a slice of provolone cheese and a sprinkle of finely grated parmesan cheese.
- Bake: Bake the stuffed mushrooms in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the filling is bubbling and the mushrooms are cooked through. For a golden brown topping, broil the mushrooms for an additional 2-3 minutes after baking.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve immediately, enjoying the warm, cheesy, and flavorful Longhorn Stuffed Mushrooms.
Notes
- Be gentle when removing the stems to avoid breaking the caps.
- Do not overcrowd the baking sheet; mushrooms should be in a single layer for even cooking.
- Broiling at the end is optional but enhances the cheese topping with a lovely golden crust.
- These mushrooms are best served warm right out of the oven.
- If Herb Pub Cheese is unavailable, a mixture of cream cheese with herbs can be used as an alternative.
