Bunch's Crab Casserole

This is my grandmother's recipe - 'Bunch' is short for 'Honeybunch,' our pet name for her. It is always a huge hit and it can be constructed the night before if need be. Just allow a little extra cooking time since the dish will be cold from refrigeration.

Ingredients

• 3 eggs
• 1 ½ cups mayonnaise
• 2 cups heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons chopped onion
• ½ cup dry sherry
• 1 pound cooked crabmeat
• 1 (6 ounce) package herb-seasoned dry bread stuffing mix

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool, peel and chop.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Lightly grease an 11x7 inch baking dish.

Step 3

In a bowl, combine the chopped eggs, heavy cream, mayonnaise, onion, parsley, and sherry. Reserve 1/2 cup of the stuffing mix and add the rest to the egg mixture. Stir in the crabmeat.

Step 4

Pour the mixture into prepared baking dish and sprinkle the reserved stuffing on top. Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes or until bubbly and slightly browned on top.
