WAYYYY easier than making individual crab rangoons!! Thanks! I easily doubled the recipe, swapped chives for green onions as i didn't feel like making a run to the store, added some tabasco soy sauce, and omitted the sweet n sour sauce. Was WONDERFUL!!! Thanks Chris! 3-1-2010... love to use up extra dip with ritz crackers. doesn't matter wether the dip is warmed or cold, irrestible either way!!

Fabulous! This is one of the easiest dips I have ever made. This was a huge hit as we love crab rangoons, but not the calories or expense of takeout. I didn't have parsley on hand so omitted that. I didn't use parm. cheese on wontons either. I also used the 1/3 reduced cream cheese and skim milk. A definite keeper.

My parents and DH loved this dip. I wasn't quite as dazzled by it, but I couldn't seem to stop eating it so that should tell you something! It tasted similar to rangoon but we all felt it needed a bit more cream cheese. The wonton strips were fantastic! They were very easy to make and came out nice and crispy; the parmesan was also a nice touch. One half package of wontons was perfect for the amount of dip this makes, although I don't think anyone would complain about having some extra lying around! This dish was enjoyed by all. Thanks for sharing!

Nice change of pace for a dip, but for someone that LOVES crab rangoon, this wasn't quite it. Watch the wontons carefully as they turn from golden to charred very quickly.

I can't believe I didn't rate this recipe before. I was preparing my Super Bowl spread (Pittsburgh all the way!) and I brought up our households' most famous recipe and I didn't rate it. Here's why it's so famous: My DH hates seafood; he pretty much is a meat and potatoes guy. But he knows at holidays and when I have company I make some wild recipes. I made a Christmas brunch one year and invited the neighbors. I had tons of different things to choose. Everyone was chowing down and rating their favories. Well my DH comes in for his plate, picks up the crab and states "Now that's GOOD." We just died. He was never so red faced as when he found out what it was called. Thanks for making food fun for our family. PS: Make this with canned crab; it tastes better.

I LOVE this recipe. I make it frequently. I use canned crab meat-not lump. It is already is tiny pieces and blends in great. I use the eggroll wrappers found in the produce section and cut each wrapper into 8 pieces. The "chips" are good even by themselves. DELISH!

This was just ok for me. I followed the recipe exactly. If I make it again I will maybe use my electric mixer or food processor to break up the crab more. I might also use less crab. The best part were the wonton chips. I might also use something like soy sauce to give it a little kick. I seems to be lacking something.

The Fresh Market I went to did not have Phyllo cups so I used crackers. My guests gobbled it up. I served Chinese Hot Mustard 149962 and Sweet and Sour 9389 along with this. I'm going to make this and serve in mini phyllo cups. I will try the suggested Sweet and Sour Sauce along with Spicy Mustard.

My friend made this AMAZING dip!!! She hollowed out a round loaf of bread and then filled it with warm dip and put the jelly on top. She used the inside of the bread to spread the dip onto. Did I say how amazing this dip was?

I am a HUGE fan of crab rangoon from most Chinese restaurants! And this was just as great!! I added a little more garlic powder, salt/pepper, and parsley than it called for. And then topped it with the Best Sweet and Sour Sauce #76003. The wonton wrappers worked out great for me too - I only needed to bake them for about 4 1/2 minutes, so I would suggest checking them early!

I personally thought this was good. not the best most fantastic thing ever... but 3 of 4 kids "LOVED" it so I went ahead and rated 5 full stars.
I made it just as stated, only doubled. I did add just a bit of sesame oil as well.
It was very good, and I will make it again (the kids want it for thanksgiving) but I will probably mess around with it a bit trying to give it that something more it seems to need. I could still taste too much of the cream cheese flavor was my problem.
At our local places the rangoon is a bit sweet, so I may try adding just a touch of sugar? Anyway it was very good, and a super cute idea!
(oh I also used low fat cream cheese, trying to make it a bit healthier)

I think this might be better with LESS crabmeat. Our Chinese restaurants use very little, and the filling is MUCH creamier than this dip. I added a little soy sauce and a couple of drops of sesame oil to add to the flavor as some said it was quite bland. Hopefully then it will resemble the crab rangoon we know and eat.

This stuff is some good! It was doubled and enjoyed by a crowd that I had in for some wine and appetizers. What a hit! Oops, almost forgot, I used canned crab instead of the imitation. I like the flavor much better!
