"This awesome, easy recipe tastes so much like Crab Rangoon from your favorite takeout joint. For best results, serve the dip hot, but my family likes it cold too if you're short on time."

I'd VERY MUCH appreciate if you would make your amazing recipes available to PRINT OUT. It's so much easier to work from a 'hard copy'. Thanks.

Has anyone tried to make this like crab rangoon IN the wonton? Fried or Baked?

Do you know that to print out this recipe it takes 3 pages? I've tried this in two browsers and it doesn't matter which browser - the issue is still the same. I don't need all the nutritional info printed but since it's right in the middle of the recipe - it can't be eliminated so there's no choice but to print 3 pages. Not happening.

Just curious about the use of powdered sugar. What is the purpose? Is it to thicken it a bit since powdered sugar has corn starch?

This recipe makes a large batch, plenty for a large group. I however did add double the green onion and added a tablespoon of chopped garlic to the recipe. I also severed it with pita chip and topped it with a spread of sweet and sour dipping sauce, like they come with at your fav restaurant. The sauce made a big difference, tasted just like the one you get when at a restaurant. Everyone loved it and wanted the recipe. Next time I will bake in individual chaffing dishes for everyone. Will be making this again!

This fills a "Little Dipper" Crockpot perfectly. It was delicious, although I may cut down on 1 Tbsp of powdered sugar next time because even for this sweets-lover, it was just a bit overly sweet for me. But I would definitely make this again and soon!

We made this for a lazy day munchie. Overall, it is good. If you are wanting Crab Rangoon it will satisfy your craving. I only made 1/2 a recipe and it was more than enough for the four of us. I agree with another reviewer that it could use less sugar. It was a little on the sweet side. Make sure you cut your crab small enough. The chips are awesome though!

I used imitation crab because I find that canned crab is too fishy. This is the second time I have made this, and this time I decided to use my food processor to cut up the crab sticks and green onion, which made for a more even texture. I also added two extra green onions since my family likes flavor! The only thing I think I will do differently next time is use a more shallow casserole dish because I had to bake this for almost am hour.

This dish is AMAZING! The only thing I changed is I used Splenda instead of powdered sugar and doubled the green onions, just because we like them. By using Splenda it added just the right amount of sweetness! Delicious! This will be my go to appetizer from now on. Thank you!

I'm an artist and I work from home, so I love to have the smell of something delicious cooking in the background while I'm working. Cooking is the way that I show love to my family and friends -- I get that from my Southern grandma, who always made amazing meals for our large extended family. Since I learned to cook from her, I always end up making meals that could feed a small army. Down home, old fashioned, comfort foods that make lots of leftovers are my specialty.I love to eat any kind of ethnic food but I'm just learning to cook from different cultures. My favorite place in the world is New Orleans, so I love to make Cajun and Creole food. I call myself the Faux Chef because I don't have the talent to be a chef but I try really hard. My problem is, I never measure anything (thanks, Grandma!) which makes me TERRIBLE at baking.
