Time: 15 minutes prep, 20 minutes cooking, 35 minutes total

INGREDIENTS

• 2 pounds Alaskan King Crab Co. Colossal Red King Crab Legs, thawed
• 8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives, plus more for garnish
• 2 teaspoons Mr. Stick’s Original Lemon and Garlic Seafood Seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup (4 ounces) freshly shredded cheddar cheese (mild or sharp), divided

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Prepare to bake—Preheat oven to 350°F. Cut crab legs open using your Mr. Stick’s Shears. Remove meat and roughly chop or pull apart with fingers. Set aside. 
2. Mix the dip—Add cream cheese to a medium bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Add in sour cream, mayo, chives, Mr. Stick’s seasoning and salt and continue beating until evenly mixed. Add in about 3/4 cup of the cheddar cheese and mix until smooth. Stir in crab meat until evenly distributed. 
3. Bake the dip—Spread dip in an even layer in an 8” x 8” baking dish or 9” pie plate. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese across the top. Bake in preheated oven until cheese is melted and bubbly—about 20 minutes. Garnish with a sprinkling of chopped chives. Serve warm.
