Many people often want different ways to serve Crab at events. This recipe works well with canned Crab but is the Bomb! with Fresh Blue or Dungeness Crab. Make this and you will be a hero.
16 oz of Cream Cheese. (Block, whipped, or Vegan will work. Plain, Garlic, or Chives)
1 lbs of Crab meat. (Canned or fresh)
1 tsp of Lemon juice
1/4 to 1/2 Cup of Cocktail sauce (see recipe below)
1 box of Club Crackers ( can substitute others)
Cocktail sauce recipe.
1/2 cup of Ketchup
1 tsp to 1 TBSP of minced Horseradish to taste (not Horseradish sauce. NONO)
1/4 tsp of Lemon juice
Allow Cream Cheese to soften and spread about 1 inch thick on your favorite service dish.
Drain Crab and remove as much moisture as possible. Place Crab evenly over your CReam Cheese ( you want Crab with every bite). Pour Cocktail sauce over the Crab and Cheese mixture, (this is a personal preference)
Arrange Crackers and serve.
This will go fast so better get the first bite. You can double and triple this recipe easily. Fresh Crab is best
