Crab Cakes with Chesapeake Bay Mayo

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. + chilling Cook: 10 min./batch YIELD: 16 appetizers.
I placed my personal stamp on my Aunt Ellie's crab cake recipe by changing up some of her ingredients. They're served with a tart and tangy creamy sauce. You can serve them on an appetizer spread or as a terrific first-course at a formal dinner.—Michelle Critchell, Moon, Virginia
