Baking the Spicy Cheesy Buffalo Chicken Dip is an essential step that transforms the mixture into a creamy, bubbling delight. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the prepared dip to a baking dish, spreading it evenly. As it bakes, keep an eye on the top; it should become golden and slightly crispy, while the edges will bubble. This usually takes about 20-30 minutes, depending on the depth of your dish.

Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked, shredded chicken (using rotisserie chicken makes it easy and flavorful)

8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1 cup Buffalo sauce (adjust according to your heat preference)

1/2 cup ranch dressing for a creamy base

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese for that bold flavor

1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese (optional, but highly recommended for added depth)

1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped (for garnish)

Tortilla chips, celery sticks, or sliced baguette for dipping

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking.

    Combine the Base Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, Buffalo sauce, and ranch dressing. Using a spatula, mix these ingredients thoroughly until you achieve a creamy and well-blended consistency.

      Incorporate the Cheeses: Fold in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese and, if you choose to, the crumbled blue cheese. Make sure these ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the mixture for maximum flavor.

        Transfer to Baking Dish: Spoon the creamy chicken mixture into a greased 8x8 inch baking dish or any oven-safe dish that is similar in size, spreading it evenly.

          Bake the Dip: Place the dish in your preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. Look for the dip to become bubbly and hot throughout, with the edges beginning to turn a light golden brown.

            Garnish the Dip: Once baked, carefully remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Just before serving, sprinkle the chopped green onions generously on top to add a pop of color and flavor.

              Serve: Serve the dip warm alongside your choice of tortilla chips, celery sticks, or crusty baguette slices for dipping and enjoy the spicy, cheesy goodness!
