Kristie’s Buffalo Chicken Dip

Thanks for sharing!

Cheesy, creamy and spicy goodness. This buffalo chicken dip is always a hit at game day parties. Dig in with pita chips, corn chips or tortilla chips (and you might want to think about making a double batch!) 

Pie pan filled with buffalo chicken dip topped with melty cheese, chives and a drizzle of buffalo sauce.

My sister Kristie makes some really good buffalo chicken dip.   It is always a big hit.  Last time she brought it over, she was kind of hoping to have some leftovers to bring home.  Her hopes were dashed… the dish was licked clean!

Mixing bowl of cream cheese and buffalo chicken mixture.

We all like things spicy, so Kristie cooks her chicken with hot sauce and extra peppers to kick it up a notch.  It really adds to the flavor.  

This stuff is so good!  Sorry I don’t have better pictures, it was eaten too fast.

Kristie says in addition to cooking the chicken with extra hot sauce and peppers, she likes to kick it up by using hot buffalo sauce.  She says don’t be afraid to use more than 1/4 cup of hot sauce if you like it hot!

We love eating this dip with tortilla chip or pita chips.  It is also great with big corn chips.  There is just something about warm gooey dip with a crunchy chip that keeps you coming back for more!

For a cold dip that is still loaded with flavor, try making some cheesy fiesta dip. It is a nice cold sour cream based dip that is loaded with flavor and perfect with tortilla chips.

If you aren’t in the mood for a dip, but still want the buffalo chicken flavor we also recommend buffalo chicken taquitos or buffalo chicken lasagna!
