My grandmother from Memphis passed her recipe onto my mother, and now onto me and I LOVE making/eating these whenever I can! My niece who doesn't like crab meat, actually loves them. I make them for parties, holidays and get togethers, or just for myself. It's so very easy! Enjoy!

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 c butter or margarine (your choice)
1 1/2 tsp mayonaise
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1 jar(s) old english cheese spread
1 can(s) lump crab meat
1 pkg english muffins

Steps:

  • 1. Split each muffin so that they are open-faced and spread out on a non-greased cookie sheet.
  • 2. Melt butter in medium bowl and add mayonaise, garlic salt, cheese spread and crab meat.
  • 3. Spead mixture over each open-faced muffin.
  • 4. Put muffins in freezer for 5 mintues to solidify the spread. But not rock solid!
  • 5. Remove muffins from freezer and cut each muffin into mini pizza slices.
  • 6. Turn oven on BROIL and put muffins in when oven is ready. Carefully watch the muffins as this only takes a few minutes. (No longer than 5 minutes.) Look for the spread to melt or bubble, then they are done.
  • 7. OPTION: If you don't want to broil all at once, after chilling and slicing the muffins, put them back into the freezer to bake at a later time. It makes for a great after work/school snack!
