Cheesy Buffalo Chicken Dip

This is one of my all time favorite recipes that I have been making for years!  It is super easy and super delicious!!!

What you need:

• 3 c. shredded chicken (I cook mine the night before in the crock pot) OR you can use 3 (10 oz) cans of chunk chicken (drained)
• 2 (8 oz.) packages of cream cheese (softened)...I use fat free (makes no difference)
• 1 c. Ranch dressing
• 3/4 c. hot pepper sauce (Frank's Red Hot®)
• 2 c. shredded cheddar cheese
• Celery cut into pieces (for serving with dip)
• Pretzels (I prefer the square ones...they hold more)

What to do:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a sauce pan over medium heat, mix cream cheese and ranch...stirring until blended and heated well.  Add hot pepper sauce and chicken and mix well.  Turn off heat to the burning and add cheddar cheese...folding into the mixture.

Transfer mixture into 9 x 9 baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until hot and bubbly.  If you are serving this for a party, transfer to crockpot after baking and keep on warm.  Serve with celery and pretzels.

ENJOY!
