MUSHROOM AND CREAM CHEESE CANAPES
I've been on a mushroom kick lately, and these have been very popular. You can make the mushroom mixture up to 2 days in advance and just put it together and pop it under the broiler when your guests arrive. Actually, who needs guests, these are a wonderful indulgence when alone as well!

- Now pile your mushrooms up in the center of your toasts. Serve right away. Garnish with fresh chopped chives, parsley or watercress sprigs if you like.
- My Grandmother always spread a tiny bit of mayo on each toast before adding any topping. I usually spread a bit of cream cheese or butter. All totally optional.
Tips:
- Use high-quality mushrooms for the best flavor. Fresh mushrooms are best, but you can also use dried mushrooms that have been soaked in water until softened.
- Chop the mushrooms finely so that they cook evenly.
- Sauté the mushrooms in butter until they are browned and tender.
- Use a good quality cream cheese. Full-fat cream cheese will give you the best flavor and texture.
- Season the cream cheese mixture to taste with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Use a variety of crackers or bread for serving. Some good options include water crackers, melba toast, or crostini.
- Garnish the canapés with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of paprika.
