- 8 tablespoons butter, at room temp. shopping list
- 1 package cream cheese, at room temp(use microwave for ease and heat a few seconds) shopping list
- 1 1/2 cups sifted all purpose flour shopping list
- (I do add a pinch of salt here!) shopping list
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese shopping list
- 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper shopping list

How to make it
- How to make the crust: in a food processor, blend the cream cheese, butter and Parmesan cheese.
- Add flour, parsley and pepper and mix well.
- Form a ball, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes
- how to make filling:
- Clean mushrooms and remove stems,
- Slice mushrooms, not overly thin
- Melt 6 tablespoons of the butter in a heavy skillet(not cast iron)
- Add the mushrooms a few at a time and saute' them over medium high heat until they absorb the butter but are still somewhat crisp(5 to 6 minutes)
- Stir in green onions and cook a few minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer the mushrooms to a 1 1/2 quart shallow baking dish or pie pan.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the juices in the skillet.
- Stir in flour and blend until smooth.
- Add the chicken stock gradually and cook the sauce over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it has thickened and is smooth(about5 minutes)
- Stir in the Madeira or Sherry and the cream.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour sauce over the mushrooms.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Roll out the pastry for crust( I just pat my out instead of rolling) large enough to extend 1 inch beyond the edge of the baking dish or pie pan.
- Lay it over the pie.
- Fold the edges of the pastry under and press the pastry to the edge of
- the pan with prongs of a fork.
- make several slits in the crust for the steam to escape.
- Bake the pie until the pastry is golden brown, about 30 minutes.
- * mixing the pastry with your fingers makes a flakier crust and bringing the butter and cream cheese to room temp makes it easier to work with.
