2 tbsp. butter
3 oz. cream cheese
1 can crab meat (3 1/2 oz. fresh crab meat), flaked and checked for shells
1/4 c. mayonnaise
1 egg yolk
1 tsp. chopped onion (fine)
1/4 tsp. mustard
Salt to taste

Microwave butter and cream cheese for 1 minute. Add the flaked crab meat. Mix the mayonnaise, egg yolk, onion, mustard and salt. Add to the crab meat and cream cheese mixture. Refrigerate for an hour or so.

Heat to serve, stirring continually to avoid sticking. Serve on crackers or melba rounds. (This recipe is easy to multiply for a large group.)
