  1. I was about to put this recipe on zaar, too! (Mine doesn't have dill in it--only difference!) It is a favorite at our house, I always have some in the freezer. At a party on Sat. I got halfway through the recipe and found I had no crab so I substituted a can of small shrimps--still got raves! Try this--you'll be hooked!
     
  2. I made a batch of these to keep on hand during the holidays. Everyone has enjoyed them and wants the recipe! I think I will cut back on the butter next time. Thanks for sharing!
     
  3. I loved the triangles. They were easy and quick to make. The best part was I made a whole batch and was able to put them in the freezer for later. And they still tasted great!
     
  4. Made this to bring to a party. They were a big hit! The only thing I will do differently next time is use 1/4 tsp. season salt as they were a bit salty. Thanks for a quick easy go to party recipe!
     
  5. My mom made these while we were out visiting last weekend and they are AWESOME! She used Imperial Sharp Cheddar Cheese Spread instead of the Old English and I just couldn't get enough!!

  2. Thank you so much for posting this recipe. I used to make it and always keep it on hand in my freezer many, many years ago. I had long since misplaced the recipe and hadn't made it in years. Thanks to you, my freezer is now stocked with these (I often heat a few up for myself for lunch along with a salad). They are so handy when someone stops by for a glass of wine, etc. because they cook up so fast. I made them as posted except I subbed Old Bay Seasoning for the dill. Again, thanks for posting this keeper, leilani.
