Ingredients

Dip Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup green onion, diced
  • 8 oz imitation crab meat, chopped
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp salt

Additional Ingredients

  • Cooking oil (for greasing baking dish)
  • Sweet chili sauce (optional topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350℉ (175℃) to ensure it reaches the right temperature before baking the dip.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, diced green onion, chopped imitation crab meat, shredded mozzarella cheese, minced garlic, granulated sugar, and salt. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is fully blended and smooth.
  3. Prepare Baking Dish: Lightly grease a baking dish with cooking oil to prevent sticking, then transfer the crab mixture into the dish. Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly across the bottom.
  4. Bake Dip: Place the baking dish into the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly around the edges.
  5. Optional Broil Step: For a golden brown top, switch your oven to broil and broil the dip for an additional 3 minutes. Watch closely to avoid burning.
  6. Add Toppings: After baking, optionally drizzle sweet chili sauce over the top of the dip for a touch of sweetness and heat.
  7. Serve: Serve the warm Crab Rangoon Dip with your preferred crackers or chips and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Use softened cream cheese for easier mixing and a creamier texture.
  • If imitation crab meat is unavailable, real crab meat can be substituted for a more authentic flavor.
  • The sweet chili sauce topping is optional but adds a nice sweet and spicy contrast.
  • Broiling is optional but recommended for a slightly crispy, browned top.
  • Serve with sturdy crackers or crispy chips that can hold the thick dip well.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated before serving.
