Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Add mushrooms, and saute until tender and caramelized (6-7 minutes). Salt and pepper the mushrooms and remove from heat.
In a large bowl, add cream cheese, sour cream, mayo, cheeses, and cayenne pepper and mix with a spoon until fully combined.
Gently fold mushrooms into cheese mixture and stir just until evenly incorporated.
Transfer dip to a lightly-greased baking dish and sprinkle top with the remaining 3 tablespoons of parmesan cheese.
Bake for 25-35 minutes or until bubbly and golden.
Let cool slightly before topping with fresh chopped parsley (optional) and serving alongside desired dippers. Enjoy!
