Scale

Dip 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

  1. Sauté Mushrooms: 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 minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute to release its flavor.
  2. Add Creamy Ingredients: Reduce heat to low. Stir in the softened cream cheese and sour cream until melted and completely combined, creating a smooth mixture with the mushrooms.
  3. Incorporate Cheese: Mix in half of the shredded mozzarella cheese and all of the grated Parmesan cheese until the dip becomes creamy and well blended. Season with salt and black pepper.
  4. Bake Dip: Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the dip. Transfer the skillet to a preheated oven set at 375°F (190°C). Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the dip is bubbly and the cheese on top is melted and golden brown.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove the skillet from the oven and garnish the dip with freshly chopped thyme or parsley. Serve hot with your choice of bread, crackers, or vegetable sticks for dipping.

Notes

  • You can substitute fresh thyme with fresh parsley depending on your preference.
  • Serve with a variety of dippers such as sliced baguette, pita chips, or raw vegetable sticks like carrots and celery.
  • Make sure to soften the cream cheese beforehand to ensure easy melting and smooth texture.
  • For a spicier twist, add a pinch of red pepper flakes when adding the garlic.
  • This dip can be prepared in advance and baked just before serving for convenience.
