STUFFED MUSHROOM EYEBALLS



Stuffed Mushroom Eyeballs image

All eyes on this spooky Halloween appetizer! These mushrooms are packed with a garlic-cream cheese filling and topped with sun-dried tomato strips and sliced black olives. The key is to really scoop out the mushrooms and not overfill the caps for a festive snack worth a second look.

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds white mushrooms (about 28)
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup shredded sharp white Cheddar (about 2 ounces)
2 small cloves garlic, grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground white pepper
Sun-dried tomatoes (not packed in oil), for decorating
Sliced canned black olives, for decorating

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F; line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
  • Remove the stems from the mushrooms and reserve for another use. Use a melon baller or 1/4-teaspoon measuring spoon to scoop out any remaining stems and gills from inside the mushroom caps. You want to create a large enough cavity to fit 1 1/2 to 2 teaspoons of filling.
  • Combine the cream cheese, Cheddar, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of white pepper in a large bowl. Transfer the mixture to a piping bag.
  • Arrange the mushroom caps on the prepared baking sheets. Pipe 1 1/2 to 2 teaspoons of the filling into each mushroom cavity and smooth the tops with a small offset spatula. (The filling will rise as it bakes, so it should not be higher than the opening of the mushroom cavity.)
  • Cut the sun-dried tomatoes into thin strips, trimming as needed to fit the mushrooms. Top each mushroom with a few strips (they look more like veins if you scrunch them before placing them on the filling). Place an olive slice in the center of each mushroom and press into the filling to adhere.
  • Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the filling has risen slightly, 15 to 17 minutes. (If any of the olives slide during baking, move them back into place when they come out of the oven.) Let cool slightly before serving.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 Rhodes™ Dinner Rolls, thawed to room temperature
1 cup pizza sauce
12 slices pepperoni
cubed mozzarella cheese
green olives (with pimento)
1 beaten egg

Steps:

  • Spray counter lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Flatten each roll with hands, then roll out into a 4-inch circle. Top each roll with 1 pepperoni, a spoonful of pizza sauce, 3-4 cubes of mozzarella cheese, and 1 more pepperoni. Fold sides of the roll up over the other ingredients and pinch together securely. Place on a sprayed baking sheet seam side down. Brush each eyeball with beaten egg. Bake at 350 F 15-20 minutes, or until lightly browned. While baking, cut green olives in half. Use the side of the olive with the hole and push the pimento out slightly. Remove eyeballs from oven and cool for a few minutes. With a knife, pierce the top of the eyeball slightly and twist the knife to make a small hole. Place the green olive with pimento into the hole. Put half of the pizza sauce into ketchup or other small squeeze bottle. Use the squeeze bottle to draw bloodshot veins leading from the center olive to the outside of the eye. Serve with more pizza sauce or cheese sauce for dipping.
