Put 1 8-ounce brick of softened cream cheese in a saucepan to heat up.

Add 2/3 cup of mayonnaise to the cream cheese in the saucepan.

Add 8 ounces of freshly grated parmesan cheese to the mixture.

Add 4 chopped scallions to the saucepan.

Add 1 tablespoon of seafood seasoning (Old Bay) and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.

Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and the cheeses are melted.

Gently fold in the crab meat to retain its texture.

Take a wonton wrapper and fold it into a triangle, squeezing the sides together and pushing towards the middle to form a cup.

Nestle the folded wonton into a cup.

Repeat the folding process for the remaining wontons and place them in the cups.

Fill the wonton cups with the crab mixture.

Bake in a preheated oven at 325 degrees for about 12 minutes or until golden and crispy.
