Ingredients

Stuffing:

Topping

Creamy Sauce:

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Wipe mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove any debris.
  • Using a small spoon, remove mushroom stems and spoon out the inside gills of the mushroom.
  • Chop the mushroom stems and mushroom gills finely.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a medium skillet and saute the chopped mushroom stems and gills until softened.
  • Stir in garlic and continue saute for 30 seconds and immediately remove from heat.
  • Immediately pour the sauteed mixture into a medium mixing bowl.
  • Add the softened cream cheese to the bowl.
  • Stir in remaining stuffing ingredients (except the crab meat) and mix very well.
  • Gently fold in the crab meat; set aside
  • Scoop the filling into the prepared mushroom caps.

For the topping:

  • In a small bowl, combine topping ingredients.
  • Mix well to ensure all of the breadcrumbs are coated with butter.

For the Creamy sauce:

  • In a small mixing bowl, whisk together heavy cream, ¼ cup dry white wine, ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt, and 1 clove minced garlic.

Bake Mushrooms:

  • Place stuffed mushrooms in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Carefully pour the creamy garlic sauce around mushrooms into the bottom of the dish.
  • Top each mushroom with a sprinkling of the topping mixture.
  • Bake 18-20 minutes or until cooked through, tops are golden, and the cream is bubbly and thickened.
  • Serve warm with crusty french bread to dip up the sauce.

Notes

I like to lightly drizzle my French Bread slices with olive oil and a light sprinkle of sea salt and then toast them before serving.
