In bowl mix together bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Add mushroom mixture and cream cheese. Mix together using fork until all the cream cheese is fully integrated. Spoon a generous amount of mixture into each mushroom cavity. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Bake for about 20 min. or until light golden brown crust forms. Serve and enjoy!
