These are a delicious little appetizer or "finger food" for the holidays! They are just the right size and there is no way to stop at just one! They keep calling you back for more! ENJOY!
1 lb. pkg. of hot sausage **
1-8 oz. pkg. cream cheese or neufchatel cheese
2- 16 oz. packages medium mushrooms
Crumble sausage in skillet and brown thoroughly over medium high heat.
While sausage is browning, remove stems from mushrooms and clean mushrooms well with a damp paper towel to remove all loose dirt.
Drain browned sausage thoroughly. Place in food processor and chop sausage until very fine.
In medium bowl, combine sausage and cream cheese and mix with a fork until well-blended.
** Can also add several dashes of ground cayenne pepper for a little extra spice if you use Regular sausage, or if you want even the Hot sausage to be a little spicier.
Spoon sausage mixture into mushroom caps - mounding slightly.
Place on cookie sheet or in baking dish.
Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 30-40 minutes or until mixture bubbles.
Serve immediately on a serving dish with appetizer toothpicks!
Note: These may also be prepared ahead and refrigerated until ready to bake and serve.
