I know this is the day after the Super Bowl, but I just had to share this great recipe with you. I am sitting here craving it as I type and am really tempted to get up and go get a bowl that was leftover from last night while I finish this post.
If you have been following me long, you know I just love Frank’s Hot Sauce and I take any opportunity to add it to a dish. This came out of a dip I had at a friend’s over Christmas and I couldn’t find one online that sounded like it tasted. So I made it up and surprise, surprise it is pretty good.
You can up the hot sauce quantity depending on how much you like it. I added almost 1/2 cup, but you can do much less.
Buffalo Chicken Dip
2 chicken breasts, cooked, finely diced (use canned or boil some)
2-8 oz pkg cream cheese, softened (I used light)
1 1/2 cups blue cheese dressing
1/4 to 1/2 cup hot sauce ( I used Frank’s! – my favorite)
1-2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Tortilla Chips for dipping
- Soften cream cheese in microwave about 20-30 seconds, add all ingredients (except shredded cheddar & chips).
- Spread in the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish and top with shredded cheddar cheese.
- Cook on 350 degrees for about 20 minutes.
- Serve warm with tortilla chips or crackers.

This is just like my recipe, except mine calls for Ranch Dressing. I don’t buy Ranch Dressing, so replace it with an equal amount of PLAIN yogurt with ranch like seasonings (look up Dry Ranch Mix on a recipe database online) mixed in. Works like a charm, reduces the fat without adding any chemicals from low fat dressings. I don’t recommend low fat cheddar for this…just doesn’t taste right. You can also throw it in the mini crockpot if you start it out in a skillet first to melt the cream cheese.
We LOVE this dip – I use ranch dressing instead of blue cheese and serve it with fritos scoops and pieces of celery!
Paula Deen has a really good recipe for this on her website!
I use ranch instead and canned chicken and I throw it all in a pot on the stove, it melts and I put it into a dish or crock pot…its super easy and everyone loves it!
I made the exact same recipe for Superbowl Sunday (for the very first time) and everyone loved it, begged for the recipe and said it was “the bomb”
I love this stuff! Try it with celery instead of tortilla chips. It’s yummy!
this stuff is awesome and addicting! It is great on celery or crackers too!
I have made this two years in a row. This recipe is almost identical to mine except I use bottled ranch dressing instead of BC because my husband doesn’t like blue cheese. This time i used almost 3/4 C. of Franks and instead of chopping the chicken by hand I threw it in the food processor and we LOVED the consistency of the chicken in it much better than previous times I’ve made it. Used Frito Scoops too-YUM!!!
Mine is similar too except you spread the cream cheese on the bottom instead of mixing it in. You also use Mozzarella on top. Yumm. It is my favorite. I made mine too this year. I also have started serving it with toasted french bread and it is SOO good. Everyone seems to love it on the bread.
I made this dip for the super bowl also. However we heated it all up in the crock pot and was the hit of the party! Try dicing up a stalk of celery and throwing it in there, it gives some bites a nice little crunch!
My recipe calls for either ranch or blue cheese. I make it in the crockpot. My favorite is to serve it with Bagel Chips!! Yum!!
Looks like this one is very popular! I make mine with ranch but I want to try sour cream and a pack of dry ranch! Anyways, I heat the chicken (canned) and hot sauce in a pot then add 1 cup of ranch and 1 package of cream cheese! I have halfed the recipe before too!
This sounds awesome. I can't wait to try it. Thanks for the recipe.
