Total Time:35 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Maryland backfin lump crab meat picked clean
  • 6 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 c Duke's Mayonnaise
  • 4 oz cheddar shredded
  • 2 tbsp pimentos
  • 2 tbsp chives
  • 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp old bay
  • 1 tsp mustard powder
  • Fresh parsley

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°. In a bowl, beat the cream cheese and Duke’s mayo until smooth. Then beat in the spices, lemon juice, and worcestershire sauce, chives, and pimentos. Gently fold in the crab meat and half of the cheese. Try to avoid breaking apart the lumps too much. Some flaking is expected.
  • Transfer the dip to a baking dish or skillet. Top with the remaining cheese and bake for 18-20 minutes until bubbling. Serve immediately.
