½ cup heavy cream

👩🍳 How to Make Creamy Parmesan Garlic Mushrooms
Sauté the mushrooms:
In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and butter. Once melted, add mushrooms in a single layer. Cook undisturbed for 3–4 minutes to let them brown, then stir occasionally until golden (about 8–10 minutes total).
Add garlic:
Stir in minced garlic and cook for another 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
Deglaze & simmer:
Pour in the cream and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Add cheese:
Stir in Parmesan. Let the sauce simmer until thickened slightly, about 3–5 minutes.
Season & serve:
Taste and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with parsley or a pinch of chili flakes if desired.
