Ingredients

For the Stuffed Mushrooms

12 large large mushrooms, cleaned Portobellos preferred for their meaty texture.
8 oz cream cheese, softened Go for full-fat for creaminess.
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese Use mature for a punchy flavor.
2 jalapenos, diced Remove seeds for less heat.
1 clove garlic, minced Add more for a stronger flavor.
1/4 tsp salt Enhances the flavor without overpowering.
1/4 tsp pepper Freshly cracked is best.
Optional: chopped fresh cilantro for garnish Leave out if you prefer no cilantro.

Method

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Clean the mushrooms, remove the stems, and scoop out a bit of the insides to make space for the filling.

Mix the Filling

In a bowl, combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese, diced jalapenos, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix gently to combine.

Stuff the Mushrooms

Using a cookie scoop, fill each mushroom cap with the cheese mixture, ensuring they are generously filled.

Bake

Place the stuffed mushrooms on a greased baking tray and bake for 20 minutes, checking for doneness.
If needed, turn on the broiler for a few minutes to achieve a golden crust.

Serve

Once done, serve them hot, optionally garnished with cilantro.
