Ingredients

Scale

Buffalo Chicken Dip Ingredients

  • 3 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • 16 ounces cream cheese (room temperature or cold and cut into cubes)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup Frank’s Red Hot Sauce
  • 1 cup bottled ranch dressing
  • ½ cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. Prepare Crockpot: Spray the crockpot insert with non-stick cooking spray to prevent the dip from sticking during cooking.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In the crockpot, add the shredded chicken, cream cheese cubes, shredded cheddar, shredded mozzarella, Frank’s Red Hot Sauce, and ranch dressing. Stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.
  3. Cook the Dip: Cook the mixture on low heat for 3 to 4 hours, stirring every 30 to 45 minutes to ensure even heating and melting, or cook on high heat for 1 to 2 hours, stirring periodically, until the cheese is fully melted and the dip is hot and bubbly.
  4. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, sprinkle the top of the dip with optional crumbled blue cheese and chopped green onions for added flavor and presentation.

Notes

  • Use cooked chicken from rotisserie, boiled, or baked for convenience.
  • Adjust the amount of hot sauce to control the spiciness of the dip.
  • The dip keeps warm well in the crockpot on the ‘warm’ setting if serving over time.
  • For a thicker dip, reduce the ranch dressing slightly or add extra cream cheese.
  • Serve with celery sticks, tortilla chips, or crackers for dipping.
