Mushroom Rolls

Appetizer by "San Francisco a la Carte"

These are so easy to make ahead and have waiting in the freezer just to be brushed with butter and baked.

INGREDIENTS - Makes 7 to 8 dozen
1 pound (453 gr) mushrooms, finely chopped
1/2 cup butter
6 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 cups light cream
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon onion salt
1 1/2 loaves sliced white sandwich bread
4 tablespoons melted butter

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Sauté the mushrooms in the butter for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly. Add the flour and blend well, then add the salt. Stir in the cream and cook, stirring constantly, until thick. Add the lemon juice and onion salt, and cool. 

Remove the crust from the bread and roll slices very thin with a rolling pin. Spread some mushroom mixture on each slice of bread and roll up. Place on a baking sheet, seam side down. Place in the freezer for at least 10 minutes. 

Cut rolls into thirds, brush with melted butter, and bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
