Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium. Toss in the mushrooms and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Cook undisturbed for 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, shallots, thyme, rosemary, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Cook an additional 4-5 minutes until the mushrooms are juicy and the butter browned. Remove half of the mushrooms to a plate.
Whisk in the flour until no large lumps remain. Stream in the wine and broth, whisking constantly. Bring to a simmer, then lower the heat and cook, covered for 15 minutes.
Remove the lid and stir in the coconut milk, parmesan, and dijon mustard. Taste and adjust salt and pepper. Cook for 8-10 minutes longer until creamy, smooth, and thickened.
Divide the mushroom cream sauce over bowls of potatoes, polenta, or rice. Sprinkle on the reserved mushrooms.
