Step by Step Guide:
1. In a saucepan, heat the chicken or vegetable broth over low heat. Keep it warm but not boiling.

3. Add the Arborio rice to the pan and toast it for a couple of minutes, stirring constantly.
4. Pour in the white wine and stir until it is absorbed by the rice.
5. Begin adding the warm broth to the rice, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently and allowing the liquid to be absorbed before adding more.
6. In another pan, melt the remaining butter and sauté the sliced mushrooms until they are golden brown and tender.
7. Once the rice is cooked al dente and creamy, stir in the sautéed mushrooms, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.
8. Remove the risotto from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
9. Serve the creamy mushroom risotto hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
