Preparation

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallots; cook and stir until starting to brown.

Reduce the heat to medium and add the mushrooms, thyme, garlic, and chives; continue to cook until the liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated for 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.

In a medium bowl, stir together the mascarpone cheese and mushroom mixture. Season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside.

Lay out 16 wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Whisk together the egg and milk in a small cup. Brush the egg wash onto the wrappers.

Place one tablespoon of the cheese mixture onto the center of each square. Top the cheese with a small spoonful of the mushroom mixture.

Place a second wonton wrapper over the top of all the filling and press to seal the edges. You may refrigerate the ravioli on a baking tray covered with plastic wrap.

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the ravioli one at a time and cook until they float to the top for 3 to 4 minutes.
