ELAINE'S HOT MARYLAND CRAB DIP
Elaine is my friend Kelly's mom and she makes a wonderful hot crab dip.

Steps:
- 1. Measure the cream cheese, sour cream, mayo, lemon juice, worcestershire sauce, dry mustard, and garlic powder directly into a large mixing bowl. Using a mixer, beat all ingredients together until well-blended.
- 2. In a separate bowl, pick through the crab meat, looking for and removing any shell pieces.
- 3. Add the crab to the mixing bowl, along with the shredded white cheddar cheese. Fold GENTLY to incorporate the crab & cheese with the other ingredients. (If you're using lump crab meat, you'll want to keep the lumps!)
- 4. Spray a baking dish with cooking spray. GENTLY pour the mixed ingredients into the baking dish. Now, if you like Old Bay seasoning, sprinkle it over the top. (If you REALLY like Old Bay, you might even stir some in first.) If you're not an Old Bay fan, you can sprinkle on some paprika, if you want. Just for "pretty."
- 5. Bake at 350 degrees F for 25-30 minutes, until the dip is melted and bubbly.
- 6. Serve hot with savory crackers, flatbread pieces, or toasted bread points.
- 7. ESPECIALLY YUMMY OPTION: Maryland Crab Pretzel Spoon crab dip over a large soft pretzel, then top with shredded cheese. Bake until cheese melts. Pull apart to eat. =^..^=

[email protected]This dip was a bit too runny for my taste. I think next time I'll add some bread crumbs to thicken it up.

[email protected]This dip was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used Old Bay seasoning. Next time I'll use less of it.
