  • 16

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup sour cream
  • 3 oz. cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup bread crumbs
  • 1 Tbsp. dill weed
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 - 2 Tbsp. lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 4-ounce can sliced mushrooms
  • 1 4-ounce can whole mushrooms
  • 8 (8x14) frozen phyllo sheets, thawed

Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oven to 350 degrees.

In a small bowl, combine sour cream, cream cheese, bread crumbs, dill weed, salt and lemon juice; blend well. Stir in sliced mushrooms, set aside.

To make garlic butter, in a small skillet over low heat, cook the garlic in the butter, until tender, stirring constantly. Coat 16 muffin cups with butter and set aside.

Brush a large cookie sheet with garlic butter. Unroll the phyllo sheets and cover with plastic wrap or a moist towel.

Put one phyllo sheet on the butter cookie sheet, and brush the phyllo with the garlic butter. Continue to layer the sheets until you have layered 8 sheets.

With a sharp knife, cut through all sheets to make 16 rectangles. Lightly press wach rectangle into a muffin cup.

Spoon a heaping teaspoonful of the sour cream mixture into each cup. Top each cup with a whole mushroom, pushing the stem into the filling. Drizzle with the remaining garlic butter.

Bake at 350 degrees for 18 to 20 minutes or until light golden brown.

HINT: to make ahead, prepare, cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours ahead of time.
