Creamy Crab Rangoon Eggrolls

I’m sure I’m not alone in that I absolutely LOVE crab rangoon!  The crunchy outside and creamy, sweet, crab and onion mixture inside is so delicious!  So, it’s only fitting that this week’s featured appetizer recipe is Creamy Crab Rangoon Eggrolls!  These delicious little gems are pretty simple.  And since they’re baked, clean-up is pretty easy, too!

To begin, let the cream cheese soften to room temp.  Softening the cream cheese makes mixing together the filling much easier.  Then, mix the cream cheese on high speed of an electric mixer (I use my hand mixer for this).  This makes the filling light & fluffy!

To this, add milk and powdered sugar.  Continue to mix, at a low speed until cream cheese, milk and powdered sugar are well combined.

Set aside when the cream cheese mixture is ready,  because it’s time to chop the crab and mince the onion!

Complete this step either by hand or by using a food processor.  When prepared by hand, the crab meat is coarse in texture (as shown in the picture).  Crab meat prepared in the food processor is finely minced.  The best method for you will depend on the texture you prefer.

If using green onions, be sure to slice them thin.  If using a yellow or white onion, finely mince them.
