Maryland Crab Cakes With Basil Aioli

    Cuisine:

    The crab cakes turned out very nice. I made them late one afternoon after work before going out for dinner. DH and I thought they tasted like something you could order in a restaurant! I must have done something wrong with the aioli because it came out way too oily - even for what I think an aioli should be. I'm not sure what I did wrong, and the crab cakes were great, so 4 stars!
