I have been looking for a recipe for this for some time. This was exactly the one I was looking for. Not fussy, quick to make. Although, as a personal preferences, I used about half of the butter called for, and it was not missed at all. Tasted just fine, and made me feel a little better about eating it! -
Delicious, and just make sure you freeze this first, as I did it one year without freezing it first, and I hated it. -
delicious!- my sister made these, they disappeared as fast as she made them!- she couldn't remember exactly what was in them- I checked food.com and here is the exact recipe she had- great tip to cup them into 4ths- she hadn't done that and the went fast-<br/>thanks for sharing this delicious recipe. -
I made these months ago for a party appetizer and didn't use them all because we had so much food. I froze the last four. My husband pulled them out of the frezer this weekend and popped them in the oven for an appetizer before dinner. They were great. We are going to a party this weekend and we are bring them along. Thanks for share. If you entertain alot these are great to have sitting in the house. -
I have made and used this recipe since back in the mid `80's. A co-worker named Kathy gave it to me. Her family had a crab processing business on the eastern shore of MD.
