            | Shredded Brain Spread (Hot Crabmeat Spread)
This is a quick and easy spread to make for any occasion. The name comes from a friend of mine who hates crab and made some disparaging comments about the appearance of the dip. It tastes great and has the perfect appearance for Halloween when paired with a creative name. I like topping this spread with 1/2 cup toasted sliced almonds, but you lose the shredded brain effect. For serving on a different occasion, omit the food coloring and add the almonds. 8 ounces cream cheese, softened 1 8 ounce can crabmeat, drained and flaked 3 tablespoons finely chopped onion 2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives 2 tablespoons milk orange and green food coloring 1/2 teaspoon prepared horseradish salt and pepper to taste Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Mix all of the ingredients except for the almonds and place in a greased shallow baking dish, adding enough green and orange food coloring to give the dish a greyish cast. Bake for 15 minutes. |
