Can't let Hub get ahead of me. Here is a recipe I found last year and people lap it up, FAST!
8 oz cream cheese, softened
4 oz sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1 6 oz can crabmeat--I guy cheaper cause it's already shredded!
1 tsp Worchestershire sauce
1 (or two if you want stronger flavor) garlic cloves, minced
3 tbs finely minced chives--dried parsley can be substituted--mostly for color
In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese with shredded cheddar, add crab, Worchestershire sauce and garlic. Form into a ball (I usually use plastic wrap to keep it off my hands). Place in refrigerator for at least two hours so everything can get used to each other (LOL). When ready to serve, remove from frig for at least an hour so it can soften some, roll in the chopped chives or sprinkle with dried parsley. Serve with firm cracker (we use Wheat Thins or Ritz Crackers). Enjoy.

Should have stated it can be "lightened up" by using low fat cream cheese and reduced fat cheddar cheese. My dietician likes it when I make it that way! LOL

That sounds great, will have to try this one too. ;)

I had dinner at a Chinese restaurant last evening. It has been a long, long time since I had Crab Rangoon. I ordered that with my dinner. It was really good. I had forgotten just how good it was. As a result of my "rediscovery", I will be making your cheese ball, soon. Thanks for posting.
