First time actually eating them, played it safe and boiled for 10 mins, cooked for 15. Really tasty but totally overdid it haha, no GI upset though. Had a bad time with Chlorophyllum brunneum once and didn't want a repeat.

Seem to be Armillaria sinapina, yellow veil remnants and thats what is most common in my area.

Man I wish I could gather these but in my region it has a really similar, dangerously poisonous mimic. I don't trust myself to tell them apart :(

Out of curiosity, what's the lookalike?

Yeah, I feel you. I've been seeing these for years and just didn't feel confident enough in my skills to eat them until this year. Now I don't think I could mistake them for much else. I do still check each one, there were some Hypholoma sp. growing pretty close to these, not incredibly similar but enough to keep you on your toes.
