    1 8-ounce package  cream cheese, softened
    1 1/2 cups plus two tablespoons  all purpose flour
    1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons  butter
    ½ pound  mushrooms, minced
    1 large  onion, minced
    ¼ cup  sour cream
    1 teaspoon  salt
    ¼ teaspoon  thyme leaves
    1  egg, beaten

About two hours before serving: In large bowl with mixer at medium speed, beat cream cheese, 1½ cups flour, and ½ cup butter or margarine until smooth; shape into ball; wrap; refrigerate 1 hour.

Meanwhile, in 10-inch skillet over medium heat, in 3 tablespoons hot butter or margarine, cook mushrooms and onion until tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in sour cream, salt, thyme, and 2 tablespoons flour; set aside.

On floured surface with floured rolling pin, roll half of dough _ inch thick. With floured 2-inch round cookie cutter, cut out as many circles as possible. Repeat.

Preheat oven to 450?F. Onto one half of each dough circle, place a teaspoon of mushroom mixture. Brush edges of circles with some egg; fold dough over filling. With fork, firmly press edges together to seal; prick tops. Place turnovers on ungreased cookie sheet; brush with remaining egg.

Bake 12 to 14 minutes until golden.

Makes about 3½ dozen.

If you like a mushroom appetizer, but are tired of stuffed mushrooms caps, here is a nice variation. This takes awhile to make, so be in the mood. From Pauline Viviano.
