- ¼ cup small-diced shallot
- 4 ounces full-fat cream cheese, at room temperature

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a skillet over medium heat, fry bacon until just crisp.
- While bacon is frying, brush mushrooms clean with a damp paper towel. Pop off the stems and finely mince them. Set aside the minced stems and caps.
- Once bacon is finished cooking, remove it to a paper towel-lined plate to cool. Add minced mushroom stems and diced shallots to the same skillet with the bacon drippings, and give a stir every now and then. Once they are softened (turn the heat down if they start to brown), about 6-8 minutes or so, remove them to another paper towel-lined plate to cool.
- In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese and blue cheese. Stir in the thyme, cherries, black pepper, and the cooled bacon, mushroom stems, and shallots.
- Divide cheesy stuffing mixture between the mushroom caps, pressing the stuffing into the caps and mounding it as needed, to use all of the stuffing mixture. Place stuffed mushrooms in a baking dish and sprinkle with a bit of bread crumbs.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until mushrooms are softened and the stuffing mixture is nicely browned.
- Serve hot/warm, with additional thyme leaves sprinkled over the top.
