Crab Bites

Crab Bites

3 oz Cream Cheese

1 can Crab, drained and picked through for shells

1/8 C. Cocktail Sauce

5 sheets Frozen Phyllo Dough – thawed

Melted Butter or Spray Oil

 

Soften cream cheese by microwaving for about 10 seconds. Combine cream cheese, crab and cocktail sauce; mix thoroughly. Lay out one sheet of phyllo dough, brush with butter or spray with oil, stack the next sheet on top, add butter/oil, continue on until all five sheets are stacked, do not butter/oil last sheet. Put the cheese/crab mixture onto the dough, spread it thinly across the entire sheet, stopping about an inch away from one (long) edge. Roll the dough into a tube (roll toward the empty edge), slightly moisten the empty edge with water to help it seal. Prepare a mini muffin tin by lightly buttering or spray oiling each C.. Cut roll into bite sized pieces (a serrated knife dipped into water works best for this) and place each bite into the C. up the muffin tin. Bake at 400 until top and sides are slightly browned (approx 15-20 minutes). Allow to cool slightly before turning out of muffin tin.
