Crab Dip Recipe (VIDEO)
This hot Crab Dip is the ultimate holiday-worthy dip. This tastes like the filling for Crab Rangoon. It’s creamy, cheesy and irresistibly good. You can even assemble it ahead and bake just in time for your party.

Steps

Spread the mixture into your prepared casserole dish, sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese and bake uncovered at 400˚F for 25 minutes or until hot, bubbling and browned in spots. If more color is desired on top, you can broil for 1 minutes at the end.
