How to Make Layered Crab Dip
- In a medium bowl, beat together 8 ounces of softened cream cheese and 1/2 cup of Miracle Whip until completely smooth and creamy.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly into a 9x13 inch baking dish or similar sized deep serving dish.
- In a separate bowl, gently combine 1 pound of drained lump crab meat with 1/4 cup of cocktail sauce. Spread this mixture evenly over the cream cheese layer.
- Sprinkle 1/2 cup of finely chopped green bell pepper, 1/4 cup of finely chopped green onion, and 1/2 cup of finely chopped tomato over the crab layer.
- Evenly cover the vegetable layer with 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese). Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Serve chilled with your favorite crackers or tortilla chips for dipping.
- Enjoy! This dip is even better the next day, allowing the flavors to meld.
