Ingredients
Scale
- 8oz container of mushrooms, roughly chopped
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 large scoop of minced garlic
- 1 block (8oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- Pepper, to taste
- Garlic herb seasoning, to taste
- 1/2 cup Italian panko breadcrumbs
- 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons butter (for topping)
Instructions
- Prepare the Mushrooms: Roughly chop the mushrooms and set them aside.
- Cook the Mushrooms: In a medium to high heat pan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter. Add the chopped mushrooms and cook for a couple of minutes until they release some moisture.
- Add Garlic: Add a large scoop of minced garlic to the pan, tossing everything together. Continue cooking for another couple of minutes until the garlic becomes fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
- Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a separate bowl, combine 1 block of softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup of sour cream, and 1 cup of shredded Parmesan cheese. Season well with pepper and garlic herb seasoning to taste.
- Combine Mushrooms with Cream Cheese Mixture: Add the cooked mushrooms to the cream cheese mixture, stirring until well combined.
- Prepare the Baking Dish: Grease an 8×8 baking pan. Pour the mushroom and cream cheese mixture into the pan, spreading it evenly.
- Make the Topping: In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup of Italian panko breadcrumbs and 3 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well and sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the dip.
- Add Butter: Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and pour it over the breadcrumb topping.
- Bake: Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 12 minutes. Then, switch to broil for about 2 minutes to make the breadcrumbs golden and crispy. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning the topping.
- Serve: Let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with crackers, fresh bread, or veggies!
Notes
- Adjust Garlic: If you love garlic, feel free to add more minced garlic to the mushrooms or the cream cheese mixture.
- Texture: For a smoother dip, you can blend the mushroom mixture before baking.
- Storage: Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warm.
- Add-ins: For a different flavor, consider adding cooked bacon bits or sautéed spinach to the mixture.
- Vegan Option: Substitute the cream cheese with a vegan cream cheese and the sour cream with a plant-based sour cream for a dairy-free version.
