Crabbies

This recipe was a very popular appetizer in the 70's and early 80's. In fact my dear friend Astrid made this her go to for every dinner party. So recently I saw the Kraft jar of sharp cheese spread at Wegmans and had to make the recipe! What I changed was the first part I did in a food processor to make it really smooth then crab meat was chunky and added in last stirring it in. Also I placed all the split english muffins on a baking sheet then spread the mixture and put it in my freezer then wrapped them up and will be able to use as many as I like for entertaining.

1/4 cup margarine, softened

2/3 (5 ounce) container sharp processed

cheese spread (Kraft Old English Cheese Spread - Walmart has it)

8 ounces cooked crabmeat (canned - I use Bumblebee)

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon dried parsley

8 English muffins, split

1.	Preheat oven on broiler setting.
2.	In a medium bowl, mix together margarine and cheese spread. Stir in crabmeat, mayonnaise, garlic powder, and parsley. Spread the mixture on the split English muffins. Arrange on a cookie sheet.
3.	Broil until the cheese mixture is bubbly
