- Add Cheese: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly on top of each stuffed mushroom for a savory, cheesy crust.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and the cheese is melted and golden.

- You can use homemade or store-bought prepared stuffing depending on preference.
- To add extra flavor, consider mixing herbs like thyme or sage into the stuffing before filling.
- Make sure not to overfill the mushrooms to avoid spilling during baking.
- These mushrooms can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving.
