Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1/4 c mayonnaise
1/4 c sour cream
1/4 c buttermilk
1 Tbsp all-purpose flour
2 tsp worchestershire sauce
1 tsp hot sauce
1/4 tsp grated lemon zest
1 clove garlic, finely grated
1/4 c grated parmesan cheese plus more for sprinkling
kosher salt
3 scallions, thinly sliced
2 Tbsp finely chopped chives, plus more for topping
1 lb lump crab meat, picked through
paprika for topping
toasted bread or crackers, for dipping

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk and flour in a large bowl. Add the worchestershire sauce, hot sauce, lemon zest, garlic, parmesan cheese and 1 teaspoon salt; beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy; about 2 minutes. Add the scallions, chives, and crabmeat and continue beating until combined (may want to do this part by hand to prevent breaking up the crab meat too much if you prefer it chunky).
  • 2. Transfer the mixture to a shallow 1-quart baking dish; sprinkle with more parmesan and bake until golden and heated through, 25-30 minutes.
  • 3. Top with paprika and more chives; serve with toasted bread or crackers.
