These Mummy Mushrooms are a Halloween hit, featuring spicy Italian sausage, creamy cheese, and aromatic herbs stuffed into cremini caps. Baked until golden and garnished with thyme, they're perfect for a festive party platter.

Directions

Set your oven to 350°F to preheat.

In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the sausage, breaking it into small pieces with a spoon. Transfer the cooked sausage to a plate lined with paper towel to drain.

In the same skillet, sauté the minced onion until translucent, then add the grated garlic and cook until golden. Remove from heat.

Combine the cream cheese, Parmesan, onion powder, cayenne, garlic powder, fennel seeds, walnuts, sausage, parsley, thyme, and rosemary in the skillet. Stir until everything is evenly mixed.

Generously fill each mushroom cap with the stuffing, mounding it high.

Place the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet and bake until the tops are golden brown, about 20 minutes.

Finish by sprinkling fresh thyme leaves over the mushrooms as a garnish.
