Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- Electric Hand Mixer
- 9-inch Baking Dish
- Rubber spatula
- Measuring Cups
- Measuring Spoons
Ingredients
- Lump Crab Meat 1 Lb
- Cream Cheese 8 Oz
- Mayonnaise 1/2 Cup
- Sour Cream 1/4 Cup
- Sharp Cheddar Cheese 1.5 Cups
- Old Bay Seasoning 1 Tsp
- Garlic Powder 1/2 Tsp
- Lemon Juice 1 Tbsp
- Worcestershire Sauce 1 Tsp
- Green Onions 2 Tbsp
- Hot Sauce 1/2 Tsp
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit first. Let your cream cheese sit out to become soft. This makes the mixing process much faster and smoother.
- Put the soft cream cheese into your large bowl. Add the mayonnaise and sour cream to the cheese. Beat them together until the mixture has no lumps.
- Stir in the lemon juice and the savory sauces. Add the Old Bay seasoning and the garlic powder. Mix everything well so the spices spread out evenly.
- Drain your crab meat and check for any shells. Fold the crab into the bowl using your spatula. Be gentle so the crab stays in large pieces.
- Add half of the shredded cheese to the mix. Stir in the chopped green onions very lightly now. Transfer the mixture into your clean baking dish carefully.
- Top the dip with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese. Place the dish in the oven on the middle rack. Bake it until the cheese starts to bubble nicely.
- Wait about twenty minutes for the top to brown. Remove the dish from the oven using oven mitts. Let it cool for five minutes before you serve.
Notes
- Use fresh lump crab meat for the very best results.
- Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing.
- Fold the crab meat gently to keep the texture nice.
- Serve the dip immediately while it is still very hot.
- Double the recipe if you have a very large crowd.
