Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Allow cream cheese to come to room temperature and soften.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, dry mustard, Worcestershire sauce, ¾ cup of the cheddar cheese, and the mozzarella cheese.
• Add Old Bay seasoning to taste (use at least 2 Tbsp) and mix until all is evenly mixed (hand mixing works best).
• Carefully blend in crab meat so as not to break up the lumps. Add milk to loosen and make mixing easier.
• Pour mixture into a lightly greased deep dish glass 9x13 pan. Sprinkle with remaining cheddar cheese and top with Old Bay to Taste.
• Bake at 350 degrees until top is golden brown and bubbling (time varies, usually 30-45 minutes).
