Ingredients

Mushroom stuffing:

Method

Mushroom stuffing: In large skillet, heat butter with olive oil over medium heat; cook onions and garlic, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes.

Add mushrooms, salt, thyme and pepper; cook, stirring often, until mushrooms are deep golden and no liquid remains, about 8 minutes.

Stir in dry sherry (if using) and cook for 1 minute. Stir in chopped parsley. (Make-ahead: Transfer to bowl and let cool completely; cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)

In bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, pepper and hot pepper sauce.

Trim off crust ends of loaf; cut loaf into sixteen 3/4-inch (2 cm) thick slices. Dip half of the slices into egg mixture; arrange on parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Top each with about 1/4 cup (50 mL) of the mushroom mixture and 1 slice of cheese.

Dip remaining slices in egg mixture and place on top to form sandwich, discarding any remaining egg mixture.

Bake in 375°F (190°C) oven, turning once, until crisp and golden brown on top, 20 to 25 minutes.
