Maryland Hot Crab Dip

(224 grams) block cream cheese, room temperature*

(60 grams) mayonnaise

(120 grams) sour cream

mustard

1 and 3/4 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning*

teaspoons worcestershire sauce

crab meat*

hot sauce (or to taste)

In a large mixing bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.

Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, 1 cup cheddar cheese, ground mustard, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce (if using). Beat on medium-high speed until combined. Using a spoon or rubber spatula, gently fold in the lump crab meat. If you used hot sauce, taste, then add more hot sauce if desired.

Transfer to a 9-inch (or slightly larger) baking pan, pie dish, or oven-safe skillet. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup of cheddar cheese.

Bake for 25 minutes or until hot and bubbly around the edges.

Cover and store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave or in a 350°F (177°C) until warmed throughout.

I thought this be amazing. I love cream cheese but here was the problem, the cream cheese completely hid the "expensive" lump crab. $25 for a pound of lump crab meat wasted.

I liked the flavors of this recipe but planned to make a crab stuffing for Tilapia fillets, so I cut the sauce in half and it worked very well but I also used other cheese added to the cheddar. The leftover dip was actually of perfect consistency if I was serving this as an actual dip with crackers or flatbread but in the future, I probably won't add as much of the wet ingredients from the full recipe when I do. All in all, I was happy with the result.

Great Hot Maryland Crab Dip.....Delicious!...The Crab was the main flavor ..... served with Pita triangles....great for every occasion...make it Today!

Sorry, I love a lot of the recipes from this site but not this one.

This was my first time making crab dip, I love crab dip but have always been scared to make it myself ..omgggg this recipe is delicious. It’s spot on for Maryland crab dip,  the only thing I didn’t use was the ground mustard, but it was still good . this will be my go to recipe from now on

Longtime Marylander married to a native who is super snobby about crabcakes and crab dip. We love this recipe. My kids requested it for Christmas Eve. I add extra Old Bay, worscestershire, some hot sauce, and a pinch of cayenne. I like it with a little kick, reminds me of Riordan’s of Annapolis (RIP), which had the amazing crab dip. Sally’s recipe is spot on and 100 percent legit. My neighbors rave when I make this for parties. I like to serve it with pretzel bread, ritz, or baguette. Also pita chips.

Sooooo disappointed in the recipe - made it for Christmas Eve- everyone hated it. Super fishy - zero flavor. Followed the recipe exactly as written - wasted $25.00 on lump crab meat. Do NOT use this recipe

Made this for our new years eve celebration- this is the PERFECT MD crab dip.  Do NOT leave out the ground mustard, DO use the jumbo lump crab. One tip is I put the cream cheese block in the microwave for about 30 seconds, then used a whisk to make it lighter, made it easier to incorporate the other ingredients. If you're going to invest in 25 dollars worth of good crab, please buy the 3 dollar jar of ground mustard. I did not add salt, it was perfectly seasoned. Served with thin slices of baguette and TRISCUITS!

As a Marylander, this crab dip did not disappoint in flavor- it was however a little too liquidy- I’ll use more crab next time!!

I’ve made this several times ( most recently Christmas Eve). It is delicious and was a hit! I love that it’s so easy and can be made ahead. Look no further fo a great crab dip!

Sadly this recipe wasn’t great. The Mayo really ruined the dish. An expensive mistake.

Made this today and I was not impressed. It doesn't taste like a crab dip to me.

Very good dish recipe was easy to follow and very detailed about what to use. Made this once already and loved it!! Can’t wait to make this again!!

Delicious crab dip. Just like you'd get at any restaurant here in Maryland! We did add A LOT more Old Bay though!

Looked so good. Way too strong of a crab flavor. I love crab, but this was overpowering. Had to throw it. Used refrigerated crab meat just like the recipe said.   Rinsed it.  Everything to the letter.  What did I do wrong?

I skipped the mayo,  and thought it was great.

There are few things as satisfying as a good crab dip recipe. This dish is the perfect blend of creamy, cheesy, and slightly spicy flavors, with a hint of sweetness from the crab meat. It&#39;s perfect for any party or gathering and is always a hit with guests. Best of all, it&#39;s easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time.
