Time 45m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

16 ounces crabmeat (claw)
8 ounces cream cheese (room temp)
1 cup cheese (shredded, I like a sharp cheese but use what you like)
1/4 teaspoon bottled hot pepper sauce (you want some heat but not to take over the flavor)

1 tablespoon garlic (minced)
1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (1 tsp dry)
salt and pepper

Mix all ingredients in no special order - except to make sure you whip the cream cheese slightly.
Pour into a well greased oven safe bowl and bake for 30 mins or until the cheese bubbles up.
Serve with crustinies* or warm bread.
*Crustinies are simple slices of your favorite Italian bread (1/4" or less cut on an angle) rubbed with a raw clove of garlic (cut the clove in half and simply rub over each slice of bread) a drizzle of olive oil and a dash of parmesan on each slice. Bake at 325°F till golden brown.
