Ingredients
  

1 cup cooked crab meat (lump crab preferred)

1 cup cream cheese, softened

½ cup sour cream

½ cup mayonnaise

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

½ cup buffalo wing sauce (adjust to taste)

2 green onions, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

Salt and pepper to taste

Tortilla chips or bread slices for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and creamy.

      Stir in the buffalo wing sauce until well incorporated. Adjust the sauce to your desired level of spiciness.

        Fold in the cooked crab meat, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, and minced garlic. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

          Transfer the mixture into a greased 9-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.

            Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and slightly golden on top.

              Once done, remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving.
