Prepare the Ingredients
Start by gathering all the ingredients. Rinse the lump crab meat in cold water and drain it well to remove any excess liquid or shell pieces.

Mix the Cream Cheese
In a medium mixing bowl, soften the cream cheese by letting it sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes. Once softened, use a hand mixer or a spoon to blend until smooth.

Fold in the Crab and Green Onions
