Marvelous Mushroom Cups

Get your holiday dinner off to a great start with an easy-to-make mushroom cup appetizer that's sure to please.

Recipe Ingredients:

8 Sister Schubert's Dinner Yeast Rolls, defrosted
6 tablespoons melted butter - divided use
4 scallions (green onions), chopped finely
8 ounces mushrooms, chopped finely
8 ounces plain cream cheese
Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Cooking Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly mist two regular muffin tins with non-stick spray.
2. Slice Sister Schubert's Dinner Yeast Rolls in half horizontally. Gently press each piece with palm of your hand to flatten. Using your fingers, line sides of each muffin cup, with each roll, to create a small bread cup. Brush “cups” using 3 tablespoons melted butter. Bake 8 to 9 minutes or until golden. Remove “cups” from pans and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
3. For filling, add remaining butter and scallions to a skillet and sauté for 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and sauté until all moisture is evaporated; remove from heat. Stir in cream cheese, salt, pepper and parsley. Fill “cups” with warm mixture and serve.

Makes 16 appetizers.
