Description
A warm, creamy dip made with rich cheeses and sautéed mushrooms, perfect for sharing at gatherings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 16 oz fresh mushrooms, finely chopped
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Olive oil, for sautéing
- Optional: fresh parsley or chives for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to get things warming up while you prepare the dip.
- Sauté the Mushrooms: In a medium skillet, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped mushrooms and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until they become tender and release their moisture. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute, until fragrant.
- Mix the Cheeses: In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, and sour cream. Mix until creamy and smooth.
- Season the Mixture: Add the sautéed mushroom and garlic mixture to the cheese blend. Stir in the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is well combined.
- Bake the Dip: Transfer the mixture into a baking dish. Smooth the top with a spatula for even baking. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the dip is golden and bubbly.
- Serve Warm: Remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives, if desired, and serve it warm with your favorite dippers.
