Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced
8 ounces cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon fresh thyme or parsley, chopped

Instructions

Step 1: Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and sauté for 8-10 minutes until browned and tender. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
Step 2: Reduce heat to low. Add cream cheese and sour cream to the skillet, stirring until melted and fully combined.

Step 3: Stir in half of the shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Step 4: Sprinkle remaining mozzarella on top and transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 375°F. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until bubbly and golden on top.
Step 5: Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley and serve hot with bread, crackers, or veggie sticks.

Tips & Variations

For a stronger herb flavor, use fresh rosemary or oregano instead of thyme or parsley.
Swap half of the mozzarella for sharp cheddar for a different cheese twist.
If you don’t have a skillet safe for the oven, transfer the dip into a small baking dish before baking.

Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle spicy kick.

Storage

Store leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave until warmed through, stirring occasionally for even heating.
