8ozlump crab meatdrained, check for shells(See Note 1)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, Buffalo sauce, garlic powder, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese until smooth.
Gently fold in the crab meat so it stays chunky.
Spoon the mixture into a small slow cooker (like a 1.5 to 2-quart size).
Cover and cook on LOW for 2 hours.
Once hot and bubbly, transfer to a serving bowl and enjoy dipping with chips, veggies, or baguettes.
Notes
Use canned lump crab meat, or go with fresh or frozen. Imitation crab also works out, but the taste and texture may differ slightly.
Swap mozzarella with Monterey Jack for a twist.
To make buffalo crab dip taste with mild heat, reduce the Buffalo sauce or add extra sour cream or cream cheese. For more spice, toss in crushed red pepper or your favorite hot sauce.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat using the microwave, slow cooker, or oven until warmed through.
To make this dish in oven; bake the dip mixture at 350°F for 20 minutes until it’s hot, bubbly, and golden on top.
