The Ultimate Buffalo Chicken Dip: A Game Day Favorite!
There are dips, and then there’s the Buffalo Chicken Dip. This dish is the epitome of game day delights. With a zesty kick from buffalo hot sauce and a rich, creamy base, it’s the kind of dish that gets wiped clean in minutes. Paired with tortilla chips or crunchy veggies, it’s a crowd-pleaser.
Let’s dive into how you can make this mouthwatering dip at home!
Ingredients:
- Two 8 oz packages of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup of blue cheese, crumbled
- ½ cup of buffalo hot sauce (adjust to taste if you prefer milder or spicier)
- 1 cup of finely diced celery
- 2 cups of diced cooked chicken (rotisserie works great!)
- 8 oz of freshly shredded pepperjack cheese
Instructions:
Mix it Up: In a large mixing bowl, blend together the softened cream cheese, crumbled blue cheese, buffalo hot sauce, diced celery, and cooked chicken. Make sure all ingredients are well-combined for a consistent flavor profile.
Transfer & Top:Spread the mixture evenly into a 9×13 baking dish, or if you’d like to create two separate dips, use two 8 inch dishes. Once the mixture is spread out, generously sprinkle the shredded pepperjack cheese over the top. This will melt into a gooey, delightful layer that complements the spicy kick of the dip.
Bake to Perfection:Place your dish(es) in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes uncovered. The top should be beautifully golden and bubbly, indicating it’s done and ready to be devoured.
Serve Warm: This dip tastes best when served warm. Pair it with tortilla chips, celery sticks, carrot sticks, or any of your favorite dippers.
TIP: For those who adore extra heat, consider garnishing with sliced jalapenos or drizzling a little extra buffalo sauce over the top before serving.
Next time you’re hosting a game day, movie night, or just craving something undeniably delicious, this Buffalo Chicken Dip is your go-to.
Enjoy the blend of spicy, creamy, and cheesy flavors that dance on your palate.
Game on!
