Hot Crab Dip at the Cape

Hot Crab Dip

8 ounces cream cheese
2 tsp. milk
2 tsp. grated onion
1 tsp. prepared horseradish
4 ounces fresh crabmeat
Slivered almonds to taste

Combine all but crabmeat and mix well. Add crabmeat and fold together until thoroughly blended. Transfer to an ovenproof baking dish. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, sprinkle the dip with the almonds and bake about 20 minutes. Serve hot with sturdy crackers.

*Substitute prepared horseradish sauce if you'd like and shallots instead of onion. No need to refrigerate overnight - it was delicious cooked immediately.
