Scale
Dip Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded chicken
- 8 oz cream cheese, cut into small cubes
- ¾ cup Frank’s Buffalo hot sauce
- ½ cup ranch dressing
- 1½ cups shredded cheese (cheddar or a blend)
- Chopped green onion, for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare cream cheese: Cut the cream cheese into small cubes to ensure it melts evenly and blends smoothly in the dip.
- Combine ingredients: In the crockpot, add the shredded chicken, cream cheese cubes, buffalo hot sauce, ranch dressing, and shredded cheese.
- Cook the dip: Seal the crockpot with the lid and set it to high heat. Cook for 1 to 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to help the cheese fully melt and combine all ingredients into a creamy dip.
- Garnish and serve: Once the dip is hot and melted throughout, garnish with chopped green onions and serve warm with chips, crackers, or vegetable sticks.
Notes
- You can use rotisserie chicken to save time on shredding the chicken.
- Adjust the amount of buffalo sauce according to your spice preference.
- If you don’t have a crockpot, you can melt everything together in a saucepan over low heat, stirring frequently.
- For a thicker dip, use full-fat cream cheese and cheese blends.
- This dip can be made ahead and reheated before serving.
