Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded white cheddar
  • 1 lb lump crabmeat picked over
  • 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 green onions sliced

Equipment

  • 2- to 3-quart slow cooker

Method
 

  1. Stir the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, and cheddar together in the slow cooker.
  2. Cover and cook on LOW for 2 hours, stirring once.
  3. Fold in the crab, Old Bay, and lemon juice, heat 10 minutes more, and switch to WARM. Sprinkle with green onions.

Notes

Check the crab for shell pieces before it goes in — one crunchy bite ruins the whole dip.
