King Crab Appetizers

As others I used phyllo cups. Added jalapeño for a little kick

Real crab would of definitely worked better. Will try that next time

The recipe was delicious. I used the phyllo cups as others recommended. Quick and easy to make, too. Since this was a Christmas appetizer for just my husband and me, I experimented. I minced one clove of garlic to include in the mixture. Then on some of them I topped with Old Bay seasoning; some with Cajun seasoning; and some with just paprika. I added a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese to all. The ones with the Cajun tasted the best. Next time I will top them all with Parmesan, then Cajun for spice and some Paprika for color. Maybe even some finely chopped chives or parsley.

This was a perfect Christmas Eve appetizer. I didn’t use tartlet pans. Instead we folded the pastry dough ‘dumpling-style’ and they became crab puffs. Fun finger food that barely made it off the baking tray. Try this recipe. You won’t be disappointed.

I used the ingredients and stuffed mushroom caps was good

Just prepared these on Easter Sunday because I literally had all the ingredients on hand. I had two packages of Phyllo Mini cups on hand (30 total) and found them to work perfectly. I don’t think they would have gone over so well with the biscuit dough. These are now on my apply go-to list… between my husband and our friend, they ate almost all of them. I used smoked paprika and because I didn’t read the entire directions, put it into the crab mix! I would probably do the same thing again and maybe add 1/4 tsp. To the crab mix. I think a little garlic would have been nice as well. I did add more green onions like others. Thought they were super tasty and easy to make!

I agree with many that the phyllo shells worked amazingly. I actually baked them with the filling even though the shells are sold fully baked. The second baking did fine. They came out tasty and my guests raved. Looks elaborate, but actually quite simple to put together. I lean toward the spicy side so a bit of cayenne pepper did the trick for me. Great appetizer! Highly recommend!

Very good. Next time, I’m going to substitute Old Bay Seasoning for the paprika to give it a bit more zing!

It was tasty & for the most part came out ok!! My problems was with the pasty.in the video their was not a picture of how to set the pasty in the mini cups.i rolled out the pastry with a pin but trying fit in side the mini cup was hard,, they al came out with to much pasty’s taste,, maybe the next time I will bye pasty’s already made

My guests loved this recipe! I, too, like other folks, did make some changes, actually omissions, if you will. I bought 2 cans of crabmeat, after reading one of the reviews, even though I was going to make only 1/2 the recipe. Needless to say, I did, indeed, use both cans of crabmeat, but only used 1/2 of the other ingredients. I’m glad I did; the additional mayo and cream cheese would have made it ‘wetter’ than I prefer. As I do not like the taste or smell of Worcestershire sauce, I omitted it and used Old Bay seasoning, liberally. Guests liked them better with a sqeeze of fresh lemon. (Made all 30, had 4 left, before dinner, and I only had 5 guests!) The phyllo cups were a great idea! Appetizer looked great! Will, no doubt, make them again! Thanks for sharing!!

Taste so good! I will make these a staple appetizer.

Made this for family event for “Pi” day. Made with real crab meat instead of imitation. I have been asked to make them for a family wedding, I think they were well received, ha. Puff pastry shells work really well. Thanks for recipe

This recipe was a waste of time and money. I ate one and threw the rest out because I would not serve them to my family. Gross.

I used the Mini Fillo Dough Shells. We thought these were okay as something a little different, and would prepare them again if I were making several appetizers, but I would not serve them again as the one and only star of the show. The flavor was a bit bland. If we make them again, I would add something to spice them up a little.

easy and quick! We made it three ways, with premade phyllo cups (15 in a package), with pillsbury crescent roll dough and pie crust (premade), all came out good! (was using up refrigerated holiday stuff!) for New Years! would make them again.

Was a hit and will be making it in the future….but instead of biscuit dough will use pastry sheets by pepperidge farm.. thanks for sharing your recipe…

I gave this recipe to a friend & she made it for our appetizer Christmas party. They were very good. She used biscuit dough I think I would have preferred phyllo cups, al ittle less pastry.

Used phyllo shells, extra imitation crab and added the lemon juice after cooking. Nice and creamy – delicious and pretty.

Got rave reviews from my friends!! Used biscuits-halted and put in cupcake tins. Easy clean up and tasted great

Made these last Thanksgiving, they were a huge hit!

I used the phyllo cups and added garlic.
