What is a Buffalo Chicken Dip?

This is a baked cheesy dip that will keep you coming back for more, and more, and more, until it is all gone. That’s how good it is. Frank’s hot sauce adds the heat, mix it with cool creamy blue cheese dressing for an extra creaminess. Scoop it up with some baked crackers. Delish!!! 

Let’s gather the ingredients:

This dip is all about the cheese. The would-be cheddar cheese, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, and a creamy blue cheese dressing. Add in some rotisserie chicken that is chopped or shredded.  Now for the heat, level up the flavor and the heat with some Frank’s Red Hot sauce. The secret ingredient is chopped celery; after all, all buffalo chicken needs some celery to counteract the heat.  

Let’s Make the Dip.

  1. Spread the softened cream cheese in the bottom of an 8 inch round or square baking pan.  
  2. Mix the blue cheese dressing, hot sauce, celery, shredded chicken, half of the grated cheddar cheese, and mozzarella cheese and mix.
  3. Add the mixture on top of the cream cheese in the baking dish.
  4. Top with the rest of the grated cheese and bake at 375 degrees until hot, melted, and lightly browned on the top.
