Ingredients

• 16 ounces cream cheese
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1 cup cooked crab meat
• 1 cup cooked shrimp, chopped
• 2 packets unflavored gelatin
• 1 cup cold water
• 1 cup hot water
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon hot sauce
• 1 cup celery, finely chopped
• 1 cup green onions, finely chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon paprika

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over 1 cup of cold water and let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.

Step 2

Meanwhile, heat 1 cup of hot water. Stir the bloomed gelatin into the hot water until fully dissolved, then let it cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese and mayonnaise together until smooth.

Step 4

Stir in the dissolved gelatin mixture, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and salt until evenly combined.

Step 5

Fold in the cooked crab meat, cooked chopped shrimp, celery, green onions, and paprika. Mix thoroughly but gently to avoid breaking up the seafood pieces.

Step 6

Lightly grease a decorative mold or bundt pan with non-stick spray or a thin layer of oil.

Step 7

Pour the mixture into the prepared mold, smoothing the top with a spatula to level it.

Step 8

Cover the mold with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight until fully set.

Step 9

To unmold, briefly immerse the mold in warm water for a few seconds to loosen the edges, then invert onto a serving platter.

Step 10

Garnish with additional chopped green onions or parsley if desired. Serve chilled with crackers, toast points, or fresh veggie sticks.
