Notes
Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature for easy mixing.
Use a hand mixer to achieve a smooth, lump-free creamy dip.
Pick through the crab meat to remove any shells to avoid unexpected crunches.
Gently fold in the crab to keep those delicious chunks intact.
Feel free to add more hot sauce or lemon juice based on your preference.
This dip tastes best when it’s cold, so keep it refrigerated until serving time.
