Crab In A Blanket ! image

No! I'm not the crab in the blanket! I have crab filling in a "blanket"! These are delightful to serve at brunches, parties or pot luck dinners. They are very easy to make, but look like you have been slaving.... tee hee! *** you can also make other fillings to make a variety to set out.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 15

FILLING
1 pkg (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
2 tsp lemon juice
1/3 c whipping cream
1/4 tsp each: salt and pepper
2 clove garlic (minced fine)
1/2 c brick cheese (shredded)
1/3 c fresh chives (minced)
1/2 c toasted pecans (chopped small)
3/4 lb fresh lump crab meat (cooked)
BLANKETS
36 slice bread
melted butter or margarine
GARNISH (OPTIONAL)
sprig(s) fresh parsley

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • 2. Beat together the cream cheese, lemon juice, whipping cream, salt, pepper and garlic with an electric mixer on medium speed for 3 minutes until smooth. Add the shredded cheese, chives and nut and mix for 1 minute. Stir in the crab meat. Set aside until needed.
  • 3. Cut the crust off of the slices of bread (save the crusts to make bread crumbs for future use). Using a rolling pin, roll out each slice of bread to about 1/8 inch thick.
  • 4. Put about 1-1/2 Tablespoons of the crab filling on the diagonal across the bread. Overlap opposite corners of the bread at the center. Use a toothpick to hold in place (if needed).
  • 5. Place these on a ungreased baking pan. Brush the tops of these with melted butter.
  • 6. Bake for 25 minutes or until light golden brown. *** You may choose to garnish with fresh parsley sprigs (optional). Serve right away.
