["Cook shells as directed on package until tender, but quite firm. Remove shells from water and invert on dry cloth, cover to prevent drying and let drain about 5 min. Melt butter in a med. saucepan. Add mushrooms and saute 5 min. Remove mushrooms and set aside. Add flour to butter and stir. Cook over low heat until bubbly, stirring constantly. While stiring, add milk, half-and-half, salt and pepper into flour and butter. Cook until it thickens (about 5 min.). Remove from heat. Blend 1/2 cup of this sauce into beaten egg yolks. Gradually add egg mixture to remaining sauce. Stir in Sherry and Worcestershire. In a medium bowl, mix together crab, shrimp, sauteed mushrooms and 3/4 cup sauce. Stuff jumbo shells with the seafood mixture. Pour remaining sauce in an 11"" x 7"" baking dish. Arrange filled shells on sauce. Spoon a little of the sauce over each shell. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Place in a cold oven. Set temperature control to 350 degrees. Bake 20 minutes. Serve right away."]
