A simple recipe for a hot, creamy, and cheesy baked dip featuring shredded chicken and buffalo sauce, perfect for parties or game days.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup ranch dressing
  • 1/2 cup blue cheese dressing
  • 1/2 cup hot sauce (like Frank’s RedHot)
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup blue cheese crumbles (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, and hot sauce. Mix until smooth.
  3. Stir in the shredded chicken until it is evenly coated with the sauce mixture.
  4. Fold in the mozzarella cheese and cheddar cheese.
  5. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  6. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the dip is heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly on top.
  7. If using, sprinkle the blue cheese crumbles over the top during the last 5 minutes of baking.
  8. Let the dip cool for 5 minutes before serving hot.

Notes

  • Serve with tortilla chips, celery sticks, carrot sticks, or sturdy crackers for dipping.
  • For a spicier dip, increase the amount of hot sauce or add a dash of cayenne pepper to the mixture.
  • You can assemble the dip up to 24 hours ahead of time; cover and refrigerate, then add 5-10 minutes to the baking time when ready to serve.
  • If you prefer a tangier flavor, substitute the ranch dressing with an equal amount of plain Greek yogurt.
