Brie Stuffed Mushrooms


My sister-in-law Lindsay invited us over for New Year's Day dinner and I brought a couple appetizers for us to snack on before our dinner of pork & sauerkraut was ready (hoping for some luck this year!). I made my usual creamy chicken cups and Pioneer Woman's Brie Stuffed Mushrooms. PW was right, you need to make 3 times what you think you really need. They were so good!!!!

1 package White Button Mushrooms, Washed And Stems Removed
4 cloves Garlic, Minced
¼ cups Flat-leaf Parsley, Chopped
4 whole (to 5) Green Onions, Sliced (up To Middle Of Dark Green Part)
Splash Of White Wine (optional)
1 slice (wedge) Of Brie Cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter in large saucepan. Add mushroom caps and toss to coat in butter. Sprinkle lightly with salt and cook for 1 minute. Remove mushrooms from pan and place upside down in a baking dish.

In the same saucepan (without cleaning it) throw in garlic, parsley, and green onions. Sprinkle very lightly with salt and splash in wine, if using. Stir around until wine evaporates, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.

Cut rind off of brie wedge, then cut pieces of brie to fit each mushroom cap. Place inside, lightly pressing to anchor each piece of brie.

Top mushrooms with parsley/garlic mixture. Place into the oven for 15 minutes, or until brie is melted
