Equipment
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened, cut into cubes
- 4 ounces processed cheese such as Velveeta, cut into cubes
- 1 cup ranch dressing
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ cup buffalo wing sauce up to 3/4 cup, depending on your heat preference (I use Frank’s Red Hot)
- 1 ½ cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded
- 1 cup Monterey jack cheese shredded
- 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a 9x7 or 8x8 inch casserole dish by spraying with nonstick spray.
- In a medium saucepan, stir together cubed cream cheese and processed cheese, ranch dressing, onion and garlic powders. Heat over medium low heat, stirring occasionally. Cook for about 5-6 minutes, until the cheeses begin to melt.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, toss together both cheeses.
- Once melted, whisk the cheese and ranch dressing mixture together until smooth. Remove from the heat and whisk in 1 cup of the shredded cheese. Fold in buffalo wing sauce, chicken and the second cup of the cheese.
- Add mixture to the casserole dish. Finally, top with the remaining ½ cup of shredded cheese and bake for 30-35 minutes until the dip is melted, and browning and bubbly on top.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes, then serve with tortilla chips, celery sticks, and/or toast rounds.
