Method

On a nice plate with an edge, spread cream cheese over plate to cover it with about 1/4" of cream cheese. Pour and spread out Cocktail Sauce to cover. Shred or chop Crabmeat over the entire thing. Chill. Serve with crackers.

 

Notes: Serve with crackers. Can be made up ahead of time (and chilled) or spur of the moment. The number of servings can depend upon how big of a plate you use. I use a 10" plate for the 8 oz. of cream cheese.

 

Number of Servings: 4-6
