From Denny: This easy recipe is a big hit during the holidays or any big gathering! Crabmeat is expensive, especially fresh. What is great about this recipe is that a mere one pound of fresh crabmeat can feed a crowd because this rich recipe is set up as an appetizer.
Fresh crabmeat is always the most tasty but if all you can procure is frozen then go ahead and use it. Just know that if you use frozen crabmeat it may get a bit watery on the top of the cheesecake near the end of the baking time. So, if that should happen then just pour off any of the clear liquid that might form.
If you happen to have any leftover crabmeat cheesecake you can warm it the next day, serving a small piece with a large green salad on the side! Bon Appetit!
