Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°. Combine crab and cheese and divide among the upside-down mushroom caps. Brush 8 phyllo sheets individually with melted butter. Cover with remaining sheets. Brush with melted butter again. Cut phyllo sheets into 6 squares. Place a mushroom, cheese side up in the center of each square. Season with salt and pepper. Lift sides of pastry over mushrooms to resemble small bundles and form a neck pinching edges together to seal. Place on a greased baking sheet and brush with beaten egg. Bake for about 15 minutes until pastry is crisp and golden. Serve hot.
