    1 1/2 cups crabmeat
    8 ounces room temperature cream cheese
    2 tablespoons sour cream
    3 green onions, chopped small

    • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before using. This will make it easier to mix with the other ingredients.
    • Use a sharp knife to cut the wonton wrappers. This will help prevent them from tearing.
    • Be careful not to overfill the wonton wrappers. Too much filling will make it difficult to roll them up.
