Hot Crabmeat Dip

Another appetizer that impresses people with its elegance, but is simple to make. Imitation crab works fine, though real is, of course, better.

• 8 oz canned or fresh crabmeat

• 1 8 oz package cream cheese

• 1/2 teaspoon horseradish, or more to taste

• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Mix all ingredients together, put in small casserole dish. If desired, top with paprika or silvered almonds. Bake at 375 for 15 minutes or until hot and slightly brown. Serve hot with crakers: I recommend Triscuits.
