Ingredients
  

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup cooked crab meat, shredded

1/2 cup sour cream

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning (or to taste)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley for garnish

Vegetable sticks and crackers for serving

Instructions
 

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix with an electric mixer or a whisk until smooth and well combined.

    Fold in the cooked crab meat gently, being careful not to break it up too much.

      Add the Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, Old Bay seasoning, and season with salt and pepper.

        Mix everything until it's evenly distributed, tasting and adjusting the seasoning as necessary.

          Transfer the mixture into a baking dish and spread it evenly.

            Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

              Bake the crab dip for 20-25 minutes until it's hot and bubbly and slightly golden on top.

                Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

                  Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
