Ingredients
8 English muffins, halved and quartered
stick of butter (softened)
A jar of Old English Cheese (or a sharp cheddar cheese, about 6 oz.)
1 tsp. of Worcestershire sauce.
1 can crab meat
Directions
Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees F for about 15 minutes. Mix butter and cheese together. Add Worcestershire and crab meat, mix all together. Spread on muffins. Bake for 15 minutes if you are planning on eating them. If not, freeze on a cookie sheet and then package as desired in freezer bags.
These are really delicious. I would advise doubling the recipe as they go so fast!
Seems like you could use something else besides crab meat because of the overpowering flavor of the cheese and worcestershire. Suggestions for a less expensive alternative?
These sound great and I would like to try making them. I'm from Australia and I'm not sure how much a stick of margarine is (is it like 1/4 cup or 1/2 cup ?) Also what size can of crabmeat (?small one) and jar cheese (what size and is this what we call cheese spread) ? Hope you can help with this as the recipe sounds yummy. Thanks!
Editor's Note 1 stick of margarine or butter is 1/4 pound or 1/2 cup. A can of crab meat is about 6 ounces.
