**If you have birthdays, anniversaries or other events you would like listed please let Chelly know by the 25th of the Month for inclusion in the following months newsletter!
Maryland Crab Pretzel
2-4 soft pretzels depending on how much you want them covered
3 ounces cream cheese
1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1 pound lump crab meat pulled (use real crab meat and don't leave it in lump form)
1 pound shredded cheddar and jack cheeses (I like spicy so I use pepperjack instead)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place cream cheese in oven for several minutes, until softened.
Place cream cheese in a large mixing bowl and add Old Bay, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco and blend until smooth. Fold in crabmeat. Place mixture in a piping bag with a large round tip. Pipe mixture evenly over pretzel(s).
Top pretzel with shredded cheeses. Bake in oven until desired color and crispness
(I don't use a piping bag I just use a knife or a flat cake icing thing)
