If you aren’t able to make it over to Landmark Americana, the College’s new restaurant and bar, for game day fuel, you will be left to your own resources to prepare a tasty halftime snack. If you have no recipes on hand or are not the most skilled cook in the kitchen, never fear— this buffalo chicken dip recipe is a sure hit.
With only a few simple ingredients and just 30 minutes of prep time, it is easy enough for anyone to make in a pinch. Pair with crudités, your favorite tortilla chips or wings for a perfect duo. For those who want a thicker and more filling dip, I advise adding a third can of chicken.
Makes: 6 servings
Ingredients:
8 oz block of softened cream cheese
½ cup ranch dressing
½ cup buffalo sauce
2 cans of chicken
1 package shredded cheddar cheese
Directions:
- Set oven to 350 degrees.
- Remove chicken from cans and separate into smaller pieces in a bowl.
- Allow cream cheese to soften before placing in blender with ranch dressing and buffalo sauce. Blend until smooth and pour over chicken, stirring until coated.
- Pour the mixture into a casserole dish and top with a generous serving of shredded cheddar cheese. You can also layer the dip and cheese if you prefer to have a lot of cheese in the dish, rather than just as a topping.
- Once your dip is covered in cheese it is ready for the oven. Bake for 20 minutes.
- Let cool, serve and enjoy!
