Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup cooked, shredded chicken
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo wing sauce (use more for extra heat)
  • 1/2 cup Ranch or blue cheese dressing
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 2 tablespoons blue cheese crumbles (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and shredded chicken. Mix until they are well combined.
  3. Stir in the Buffalo wing sauce and the Ranch or blue cheese dressing. Mix thoroughly.
  4. Fold in half (1/2 cup) of the shredded cheddar cheese.
  5. Spread the mixture evenly into your prepared baking dish.
  6. Top the dip evenly with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and the blue cheese crumbles, if using.
  7. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the dip is heated through and the cheese on top is melted and bubbly.
  8. Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving hot with tortilla chips, celery, or crackers.

Notes

  • You can make this dip ahead of time. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking. Add about 5-10 minutes to the bake time if cooking straight from the refrigerator.
  • For a slow-cooker method, combine all ingredients except 1/4 cup of the cheddar cheese. Place in a small slow cooker and cook on LOW for 2 hours or HIGH for 1 hour. Stir, top with remaining cheese, and cook until melted.
  • Richard likes to use Frank’s RedHot for the authentic Buffalo flavor.
