Remove the stems from the washed and dried mushrooms and place the caps into a bowl.

Mince the mushroom stems finely with a knife and place them in a mixing bowl.

Drain all excess water from the thawed spinach and chop it before adding it to the bowl with the minced mushroom stems.

Add the cream cheese, minced garlic, and black pepper to the bowl.

Mix the ingredients together using an electric hand mixer on low until thoroughly combined.

Brush melted butter onto the mushroom caps and place them onto a baking sheet.

Fill each mushroom cap with the spinach and cheese mixture, piling it high.

Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese on top of each stuffed mushroom.

Bake in the oven at 400°F for about 12 to 15 minutes until hot and melty.
