Note

For easier stuffing, you can chop the mushroom stems finely and mix them into the filling for added texture and flavor.

If you prefer a crispier top, sprinkle a little breadcrumbs or grated parmesan cheese over the filling before baking.

These mushrooms can be assembled up to 24 hours in advance. Keep them covered in the refrigerator and bake when ready to serve.

Ensure the cream cheese and deviled ham are at room temperature before mixing to achieve a smooth consistency.
