This Crockpot Buffalo Chicken Dip is a creamy, spicy, and cheesy appetizer perfect for game day or parties. Made with tender canned chicken, rich cream cheese, zesty buffalo hot sauce, tangy ranch dressing, and melted cheddar cheese, it’s slow-cooked to perfection in a crockpot, resulting in a warm, flavorful dip that’s easy to prepare and sure to be a crowd-pleaser.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 4 cups canned chicken, drained (about two large cans)
  • 16 ounces cream cheese (two packages), cut into small chunks
  • 1 cup buffalo hot sauce (we use Frank’s)
  • 1 cup ranch dressing
  • 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cream cheese: Cut the cream cheese into small chunks to help it melt more easily during cooking.
  2. Combine ingredients in crockpot: Add the canned chicken, cream cheese chunks, buffalo hot sauce, ranch dressing, and shredded cheddar cheese into the crockpot. Stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.
  3. Cook the dip: Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 3 to 4 hours or on high heat for 1 to 2 hours. Stir the mixture approximately every 30 minutes to ensure the cream cheese melts thoroughly and blends smoothly with the other ingredients.
  4. Serve warm: Once fully melted and combined, transfer the dip to a serving dish or serve directly from the crockpot. Enjoy with chips, celery sticks, or crackers.

Notes

  • Use canned chicken for convenience, but shredded cooked chicken can also be substituted.
  • Adjust the buffalo hot sauce amount to your preferred spice level.
  • Stirring frequently helps prevent burning and ensures a smooth texture.
  • To keep the dip warm during a party, set the crockpot to the ‘keep warm’ setting after cooking.
  • Serve with tortilla chips, celery sticks, or carrot sticks for dipping.
