Ingredients

Scale

Fresh Ingredients

  • 8 ounces fresh button or cremini mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Dairy Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Seasonings

  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mushrooms: Clean and finely chop the fresh mushrooms. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat, then sauté the mushrooms until they release their moisture and turn golden brown, about 7-10 minutes. This intensifies their flavor and prevents excess moisture in the dip.
  2. Mix the Creamy Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, shredded mozzarella, and grated Parmesan. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy with no lumps.
  3. Add Flavorings: Add the sautéed mushrooms, minced garlic, chopped green onions, and season with salt and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of all flavors.
  4. Bake the Dip: Transfer the mixture into a baking dish and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  5. Serve Warm: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. This allows the dip to set for easier scooping and enhances the flavor.

Notes

  • Use fresh mushrooms rather than canned for optimal texture and flavor.
  • Sauté mushrooms thoroughly to bring out their natural umami and reduce moisture.
  • Ensure cream cheese is softened to achieve a smooth and creamy dip base.
  • Season gradually and taste as you go to balance the dip perfectly.
  • Keep an eye on the dip while baking to prevent burning or drying out the cheese topping.
