Ingredients
- 8 ounces Lump crab meat
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 0.5 cups Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cups Sour cream
- 1 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning
- 2 Green onions (thinly sliced, for garnish)
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, garlic powder, and Old Bay seasoning. Mix until smooth and well-combined.
Fold in the lump crab meat, shredded cheddar cheese, and grated Parmesan cheese. Be gentle to avoid breaking apart the crab meat too much.
Transfer the mixture to a small oven-safe baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbling around the edges.
Remove the dip from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Garnish with sliced green onions and paprika if desired.
Serve warm with crackers or slices of bread. Enjoy!
