Meanwhile, make the mushroom filling. In a medium bowl combine: the cheeses, onion powder, garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon flour, the egg yolks, and the cayenne pepper. Shape the filling into 8 equal patties, 1/2 inch smaller in diameter than the mushroom caps. Place prepared cheese patties on the gill side of each sliced mushroom cap, making sure to leave a 1/2 inch border. Top each with other side of mushroom pressing firmly around edges to seal filling inside. If it is difficult to seal mushroom patties filling remove some cheese mixture.
