PHYLLO STUFFED CRAB MUSHROOMS

Category: Stuffed Mushrooms

1/2 cup herb flavored cheese, boursin
1/2 finely minced crabmeat
20 mushrooms, stems removed
1 box phyllo pastry
1/3 cup butter, melted
Salt and pepper
1 egg, beaten

Preheat oven to 400. Combine cheese and crab in a small bowl. Divide crab mixture among the upside-down mushroom caps, stuffing the mushrooms.

Brush 1 phyllo sheet with melted butter, cover with another sheet, and brush with more butter. Cut sheets into 4 squares.

Place mushroom, cheese side up, in the center of each square. Season with salt and pepper. Repeat 5 more times to make a total of 20 squares.

Lift sides of pastry over mushrooms to resemble small bundles and form a inchneck inch, pinching edges together to seal. Place on a greased baking sheet and brush with beaten egg. Bake for 15 minutes until pastry is crisp and golden. Serve hot.
