For an even richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk. Add a splash of dry white wine to the mushroom mixture while sautéing for extra depth. Adjust the amount of Parmesan cheese to your liking. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a little more milk to reach your desired consistency. Ensure the cream cheese is properly softened to avoid lumps in the sauce.
