Description
This Crock Pot Buffalo Chicken Dip is creamy, cheesy, and packed with bold buffalo flavor. Made with tender shredded chicken, tangy sauce, and melted cheese, it’s the ultimate crowd-pleasing appetizer—perfect for game day, potlucks, or parties.
Ingredients
2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup ranch dressing (or blue cheese dressing)
½ cup buffalo wing sauce (such as Frank’s RedHot)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or mix with mozzarella)
½ cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)
2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, ranch dressing, buffalo sauce, and shredded cheddar cheese to a crock pot. Stir until evenly mixed.
- Cook: Cover and cook on low for 2 hours or high for 1 hour, stirring once halfway through.
- Add Blue Cheese (Optional): If using, stir in blue cheese crumbles during the last 15 minutes of cooking for a tangy kick.
- Serve: Once hot and bubbly, garnish with sliced green onions. Serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, or celery and carrot sticks.
Notes
Use less buffalo sauce or add sour cream for a milder dip.
Mix cheddar and mozzarella for a smoother, gooey texture.
Add garlic powder or smoked paprika for extra flavor.
To keep it warm for parties, leave the slow cooker on the ‘warm’ setting and stir occasionally.
For a baked version, cook at 350°F (175°C) for 20 minutes until bubbly.
