Print Recipe

A creamy, spicy buffalo chicken dip with a tangy punch of blue cheese crumbles, perfect for parties, game days, or casual comfort food.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup mayonnaise (light mayo optional)
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie recommended)
  • ¾ cup buffalo wing sauce (e.g., Frank’s RedHot)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup blue cheese crumbles
  • Optional: 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
  • Optional: chopped green onions or chives for garnish
  • Optional: celery sticks or tortilla chips for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth (about 2 minutes). Add sour cream and mayonnaise; mix until creamy and well blended.
  3. Stir in buffalo wing sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Adjust heat by adding more buffalo sauce or cayenne if desired.
  4. Fold in shredded chicken and shredded cheddar cheese gently until combined. Add a splash of milk if mixture is too stiff.
  5. Spread the dip evenly in an 8×8 inch oven-safe baking dish or skillet and smooth the top.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes until bubbly and golden around edges.
  7. Remove from oven and sprinkle blue cheese crumbles evenly over the top.
  8. Optionally, return to oven for 3-5 minutes to slightly melt blue cheese or serve immediately.
  9. Serve warm with celery sticks, tortilla chips, or toasted baguette slices.

Notes

Softening cream cheese fully before mixing is essential for smooth texture. Use rotisserie chicken for ease and flavor. Add blue cheese crumbles at the end to keep texture distinct. Can be prepared ahead and refrigerated before baking. For dairy-free or vegetarian versions, substitute ingredients accordingly.
