              MARTY'S CRAB BUTTER
              CRAB-BUTTER —crab or shrimp dip
              INGREDIENTS (Serves 6 gluttons)
½ cup butter
1 cup cream cheese
1/4 cup mayonnaise
6 oz crab meat
1 onion (medium to large, chopped fine)
some cocktail sauce
2 Tbsp lemon juice
½ tsp crushed garlic (or a pinch of instant garlic)
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
                 PROCEDURE

(1) Allow butter and cream cheese to soften before starting.
(2) Mix mayo, butter and cream cheese. Do not use a blender, as the mixture will get soupy.
(3) Add lemon juice, garlic, worcestershire sauce, pepper, etc. to taste.
(4) Mix in crab (or whatever) and onion. Of the choices, I feel crab is the best.
(5) Chill at least two hours, cover with cocktail sauce. This is an important part of the recipe.
