I got this recipe from a Southern Living Magazine a couple of years ago. It was an instant favorite, and I get so many requests for the recipe that I figured I would make it easy on myself and just post it. I usually use more Old Bay, Tabasco, and scallions than it says, cause I like a little extra kick. It really is AWESOME, especially with crusty french bread.
Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package light cream cheese
1/2 cup light mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon tabasco sauce
3 scallions (finely chopped)
1 teaspoon old bay seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
6 ounces crabmeat (backfin)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese (fresh grated)
Directions:
1. Blend cream cheese and mayo until creamy.
2. Add lemon juice, Tabasco, and scallions; mix.
3. Add old bay, salt, pepper and crab meat; mix.
4. Put in baking dish and top with parmesan cheese.
5. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes, until cheese starts to brown.
6. Can be refrigerated up to 24 hours before cooking.
