Probably a fungus, which is what mushrooms are. They actually can be beneficial to gardens and flower beds and are usually caused by mild spring like weather and rain. -

Obviously your mulch was contaminated with mushroom spores. Try sprinkling baking soda over the mushrooms and they will die off. -

sounds like it got wet and you have the spores to bad they are not edible -

You made me feel better as I was stomping on those mushrooms so no one would see them. Didn't know they wouldn't harm anything.
