Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 12.5 ounce canned chicken drained
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 1/3 cup ranch dressing
  • 3/4 cup Franks buffalo sauce
  • 2 cups cheddar cheese shredded

Instructions
 

  • In a crockpot, place the chicken, cream cheese, ranch dressing, Franks Buffalo Sauce, and cheddar cheese.
  • Cook the dip on high for 1 hour or low for 2 hours. Stir the ingredients several times as they begin to melt and combine.
  • Reduce heat to low or the warm setting when serving.
  • Serve with celery sticks, tortilla chips, or peppers.

Notes

  • Softened cream cheese is a lot easier to work with.
  • Canned chicken is already cooked, so be sure not to overcook the dip. It could make the chicken taste dry and tough. Keep an eye on the cooking time.
  • Leave the dip right in the slow cooker for serving. I set mine to Warm as soon as it’s done so the texture stays nice and melty.
  • If the dip isn’t thick enough, add some more cream cheese. This should thicken it up nicely! Otherwise, a cornstarch slurry is a good alternative.
  • Leftover dip can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. To reheat, gently warm it in 30-second bursts in the microwave or over low heat in a saucepan on the stovetop. Be careful not to overcook it!
