  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. In medium skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add chopped onions and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook onions, stirring occasionally, 15 - 20 minutes or until softened. Add salt and pepper to taste, then add fresh thyme leaves. Cook yet another 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions are deep golden brown and very caramelized. Add white wine and continue to cook 3 minutes more. Remove from heat. In a bowl, stir in cream cheese, egg and parsley until well combined.
