This past week, in Relish, there was a recipe for a mushroom/cheese calzone/knish type of thing in pastry dough with a milchig sauce. I clipped the recipe... and lost the clipping.

Does anyone have the recipe?

Typing it up.

Cheesy Mushroom Twists with Cream Sauce

� 20 5�x5� frozen puff pastry squares
� 1 7 oz. container scallion cream cheese
� 2 8 oz. cans sliced mushrooms, drained
� 1 8 oz. bag shredded mozzarella cheese
� 1 egg beaten
� Sesames seeds for topping
Sauce:
� 1 8 oz. can sliced mushrooms, drained
� 1 stick butter
� 3 T. flour
� 2 cups heavy cream
� � cup milk
� � tsp. white pepper
� � cup parmesan cheese
� 2 cloves garlic, crushed
� Parsley flakes, for garnishing
Preheat oven to 350. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Smear cream cheese on pastry squares. Place a few mushrooms in the center of each square and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Bring all corners to center and twist dough well to seal.
Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake at 350 for 40 min. or until golden brown.
To prepare sauce, melt butter in a saucepan. Add mushrooms and saut� for a few min. Stir in flour, then add rest of sauce ingredients and bring to a boil. Lower the flame and cook for another 5 min. stirring occasionally.

2 questions:

If I don't want to use canned mushrooms, I think it ruins the taste, what should I do to the fresh ones? Sautee them or just use them the way they are since they'll be cooked anyway?

And if I want to freeze them over Shavuos, what would be the best way to do that?

I would sautee them first. It makes the mushrooms more flavorful.
