• Cream Cheese (8 ounces, softened): The creamy base of the dip that adds a smooth, thick texture with a slight tangy taste.
• Daisy Sour Cream (1/2 cup): Provides a rich, velvety, creaminess and tangy flavor that balances the heavier cheeses.
• Mayonnaise (1/4 cup): Acts as a stable binder and adds rich moisture to the dip.
• Worcestershire Sauce (1 teaspoon): Provides a deep, savory, and tangy flavor boost to the dip.
• Soy Sauce (1 teaspoon): Adds umami (deep savory) flavor and saltiness to the dip.
• Minced Garlic (1 teaspoon): Delivers a punchy, fresh bite. Combined with the garlic powder, it provides a rounded garlic flavor to the dip.
• Garlic Powder (½ teaspoon): Provides a mellow, rounded, and uniform background flavor that saturates the entire base of the dip.
• Black Pepper (¼ teaspoon): Adds a sharp, woody, and warm flavor with a mild heat.
• Sliced Green Onions (¼ cup): Provides a mild, fresh onion taste and a pop of bright color that balances the rich ingredients.
• Shredded Mozzarella Cheese (¾ cup): Perfect for hot dips, it melts smoothly into a stretchy, gooey texture and has a mild, milky flavor that carries bold ingredients without overpowering them.
• Shredded Parmesan Cheese (¼ cup): Adds a deep, savory, nutty, and salty punch that balances rich dips.
• Canned Crab (12 ounces, drained and chopped): A budget friendly option for seafood that is already cooked, cleaned, and ready to enjoy, it has a mildly sweet, tender, and briny flavor with a clean note of the sea.
• Sweet Chili Sauce (2 tablespoons): Its sweet, tangy, and mildly spicy flavor cuts through the rich, heavy taste of the creamy filling.

• Make sure cream cheese is at room temperature to ensure a smooth and lump-free texture.
• To quickly bring cream cheese to room temperature try one of these three methods.
  • Cut into small cubes and let sit for 15-20 minutes.
  • Leave in original wrapping and submerge in a bowl of warm water for 15 minutes.
  • Place unwrapped cream cheese on plate and microwave for 15 seconds, repeating in 10-15 second bursts until soft.
• For quicker mixing, try mixing creamy ingredients with an electric hand mixer before folding in the crab, green onions, and cheese.
• Fresh lump crab offers a delicate, sweeter flavor and may be used in place of drained, canned crab.
• Imitation crab may also be used in place of drained, canned crab and is more budget friendly than real crab. It has a slightly sweeter taste than canned crab or fresh lump crab.
• Be sure to pick through both fresh and canned crab meat to remove any stray shell fragments.
• Monterey Jack may be used in place of mozzarella.
• Chives may be used in place of green onions for a similar flavor.
• No sweet chili sauce? Try mixing 1 tablespoon hot honey with 1 teaspoon sriracha.
• Sweet and sour sauce may also be used in place of sweet chili sauce. Add a dash of hot sauce or a pinch of red pepper flakes to add heat.
• Hot sauce or red pepper flakes may be added to the dip base if you prefer spicier dips.
• To make wonton chips, cut wonton wrappers in half and brush them with oil and bake at 350°F for 6-10 minutes or air-fry for crispier chips.
• This delicious dip is easy to make ahead. Assemble unbaked dip up to two days before serving. Store in the fridge until you’re ready to bake. Add 3-5 minutes to baking time if putting into the oven directly from the fridge.
• Leftovers may be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
