Instructions
  1. Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees and lightly spray an 8 or 9 inch pie dish and set aside. Pull out a large baking sheet and set aside.
  2. In a medium skillet over medium add the olive oil and cook the mushrooms until tender. Around 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. While mushrooms are cooking add the cream cheese and sour cream to the bowl of stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and beat until smooth and combined. 3 to 4 minutes.
  4. Add the garlic, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper and mix to combine.
  5. Add the cheeses one and time and mix after each addition. Last add in the cooked mushrooms after they have cooled for a few minutes.
  6. Scrape into the prepared baking dish and smooth off the top with an offset spatula. Set aside.
  7. Place a large piece of parchment on the counter and open the dough. You can stretch out a bit with your hands to make a bit larger and flat. Using a 2 inch (can use bigger if you want bigger dough balls) cookie/dough or glass to cut out circles of dough. Place about 2 motz pearls into the round and close around to form a ball. Place on the edge of the pie dish on top of the dip and press down slightly. Repeat this process, using scrapes if needed, to create dough balls filled motz around the entire perimeter of the dish, so you form a dough ball crust.
  8. Brush or spray tops of balls with olive oil. Sprinkle with sea salt, granulated garlic and grated parmesan. Add a few more grinds of black pepper over the top of the dip. Place pie dish on large baking sheet and place on the middle rack in the oven. Back for 30 to 40ish minutes until the dip is bubbling and the dough balls are golden brown.
