    Best cream hceese stuffed mushrooms pin with text header.

    My quick and easy cream cheese stuffed mushrooms are the perfect bite-sized appetizers for any dinner, celebration, party, or get-together! These incredible hors d'oeuvres are stuffed with a cream cheese and Parmesan filling that has been seasoned to perfection - you can't eat just one!

    Easy Stuffed Mushrooms

    You can find stuffed mushrooms on restaurant menus everywhere because they are not only incredibly delicious, but they are super easy to make! I stuff my mushrooms with a mixture of cream cheese, Parmesan, and handful of simple seasonings that combine to make a filling that is downright addicting.

    These mushrooms are the perfect bite-sized finger food for any occasion. You might want to make an extra batch because everyone will want seconds (and thirds)!

    🥘 Ingredients

    These cream cheese stuffed mushrooms only require a few easy-to-find ingredients. The optional Cajun seasoning gives them a little kick and added flavor that my family really enjoys!

    Cream cheese stuffed mushrooms ingredients measured out and ready to combine.
    • Mushrooms - 8 ounces of white mushrooms or cremini mushrooms.
    • Cream Cheese - One 8-ounce block of cream cheese softened at room temperature.
    • Parmesan cheese - ⅓ cup of shredded Parmesan, reserve some for sprinkling on top (*see note).
    • Seasoning - ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, ¼ teaspoon onion powder.
    • Cajun Seasoning (optional) - Enough to sprinkle over the top of the mushrooms to taste.
    • Parsley (optional) - Fresh or dried, for garnishing.

    *Be sure to see the recipe card below for ingredients, amounts & instructions!*

    🔪 Step-By-Step Instructions

    1. Prep. Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    2. Clean mushrooms. Clean any dirt off of your 8 ounces of mushrooms and carefully remove the stems (*see note).
    3. Make filling. In a medium mixing bowl break up 8 ounces of softened cream cheese until smooth. Then, add ⅓ cup Parmesan cheese, ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, and ¼ teaspoon onion powder and mix again until smooth.
    4. Stuff mushrooms. Put a generous portion of the cream cheese filling into each mushroom cap. Then, place the mushrooms on your prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with the optional Cajun seasoning and any reserved Parmesan if desired.
    5. Bake. Bake at 400°F (205°C) for 20 minutes. Broil for a few minutes to brown the cream cheese stuffing, if needed. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh chopped parsley.

    These cream cheese stuffed mushrooms make a fabulous starter to any meal. If you're a fan of the Cajun seasoning, serve them with some Cajun sausage pasta or Cajun shrimp. Enjoy!

    💭 Angela's Tips & Recipe Notes

    • It is best to clean your mushrooms by wiping them with a slightly damp towel as we want them dry, rather than soggy once baked.
    • Reserve 1-2 tablespoons of the shredded or freshly grated Parmesan cheese to sprinkle over the stuffed mushrooms before baking.
    • If desired, you can chop the trimmed mushroom stems finely and saute (plus optional finely minced onion and/or garlic) for about 5 minutes, cool, and combine with the cream cheese stuffing.
    • Storing: These mushrooms are best right out of the oven, but if you have leftovers you may store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. The easiest way to reheat them is to pop them in the microwave for 25-30 seconds!
