Ingredients:

  • Ritz crackers
  • ½ cup shredded Parmesan or Romano cheese
  • 2 sticks butter
  • 2 sliced bacon
  • Yellow onion, diced
  • 1 cup green onions, sliced
  • ½ cup butter melted
  • 3 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 16 ounces crab meat
  • 2 cups Swiss cheese, shredded 

Directions 

Crush one sleeve of Ritz crackers and mix into melted 2 sticks of butter.  Mix in cheese.  Press into pie dish or springform pan to make a crust.  

Drain crab meat and set aside.  

Cook bacon.  Remove bacon and chop.  Add onion and green onion to the bacon grease. 

Mix onions, chopped bacon, cream cheese, cream, Swiss & eggs in stand mixer. 

After all is mixed fold in crabmeat.  Pour over crust and bake at 375 degrees until solid and the top is a light golden brown.  This took me 40 minutes.  It will still be a little jiggly.  Let cool then place in fridge overnight.  Serve with Ritz crackers.
