Crabbies

Maggie in Florida's Note:

These were served at a party many years ago, and I have made them from time to time over the years, and they always disappear quickly. If you enjoy seafood, you will love these. Preparation time does not include freezing time.

I had these over my sister's house and they were pretty good. She used garlic powder and didn't use seasoning salt. I think they need more crab so the flavor would have shown through better, and a little Louisiana hot sauce to give it a little more flavor. All in all it was a good snack that we enjoyed munching on out by the pool. I will make them again with a few adjustments. Thank you for sharing your recipe with us Maggie!

Easy and tasty. I made them for a dinner for two, but I just froze the rest.

What can I say? These were soooo good and soooo easy to make. I doubled the recipe since I read how quickly they disappeared, (from Andi's comments). This is such an easy and quick appetizer to make, especially if you already have them frozen. This is definitely going to be one of my mainstay appetizers from now on. Thank you, Maggie for sharing this tasty recipe with us!
