Main Ingredients
- 1 rotisserie chicken, shredded
- 3 (8-oz.) blocks cream cheese
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 3/4 cup Buffalo sauce
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
For Serving
- 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
- Freshly chopped chives, for garnish
- Sliced baguette
- Celery sticks
- Carrots
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a large slow cooker, add the shredded rotisserie chicken, cream cheese blocks, shredded cheddar cheese, Buffalo sauce, and ranch dressing. Stir gently to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- Cook the Dip: Set the slow cooker to low and cook the mixture for 3 hours. This allows the cream cheese and cheddar to melt completely and the flavors to meld together, creating a creamy and spicy dip.
- Prepare to Serve: Once the dip is heated through and fully melted, sprinkle the top with crumbled blue cheese and freshly chopped chives for extra flavor and a touch of freshness.
- Serve with Dippers: Offer the dip warm alongside sliced baguette, celery sticks, and carrot sticks for dipping. Enjoy as a delicious appetizer or party snack.
Notes
- Ensure the rotisserie chicken is well shredded for even mixing and texture.
- You can adjust the amount of Buffalo sauce to make the dip milder or spicier according to your preference.
- Using full-fat cream cheese and cheddar will yield a richer dip, but you can substitute with reduced-fat versions for a lighter option.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently before serving.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute the baguette with gluten-free crackers or veggies.
