Cindy Weinstein Recipe ~ Quick and Easy Crab Rangoon Dip

This quick and easy dip has all the flavor of fried Rangoon -- without the time and mess of frying. Won ton wrappers are baked crisp, then dipped in a creamy Asian-style sauce. They disappear fast at gatherings! The won ton wrappers may need to be baked in several batches.

Ingredients

• 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
• 1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
• ½ teaspoon dried parsley
• 1 pound cooked crabmeat
• 1 (14 ounce) package wonton wrappers
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 (7 ounce) jar duck sauce

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a large baking sheet.
2. In a medium bowl, mix cream cheese, soy sauce, fresh ginger root, garlic, parsley and crabmeat.
3. Cut wonton wrappers diagonally into triangles. Arrange triangles on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Sprinkle with paprika, increasing the amount as desired.
4. Bake wrappers in the preheated oven until crisp and lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
5. Pour approximately 1/2 the duck sauce over cream cheese mixture. Serve the rest with the toasted won ton wrapper triangles for dipping.
