When friends visit from other parts of the country, I treat them to a Cajun-style Christmas. This flavor-packed seafood dip gives them a delicious taste of the Bayou State.

In a bowl, combine the cream cheese, horseradish, Worcestershire and hot pepper sauce; mix well. Stir in crab and onion. Spoon into a greased 1-qt. baking dish. Toss bread crumbs with paprika; sprinkle over top. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until edges are bubbly. Serve warm with crackers.

Very good flavors. My sister-in-law is from Louisianna and I used the fresh crab meat from the fish market. Wonderful flavors. I could eat with a spoon!
