Ingredients
- 1/3 cup melted butter
- 1 box (will need at least 18 sheets) phyllo dough
- 18 uniform sized stem removed mushrooms
- 1/2 cup finely minced (may use imitation) crabmeat
- 1/2 cup gournay cheese
- 1 beaten egg
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 °F. Combine crab and cheese and divide among the upside-down mushroom caps. Brush 8 phyllo sheets individually with melted butter. Cover with remaining sheets. Brush with melted butter again. Cut phyllo sheets into 6 squares. Place a mushroom, cheese side up in the center of each square. Season with salt and pepper. Lift sides of pastry over mushrooms to resemble small bundles and form a neck pinching edges together to seal. Place on a greased baking sheet and brush with beaten egg. Bake for about 15 minutes until pastry is crisp and golden. Serve hot.
