Buffalo Chicken Dip Welcome back! Today I will be teaching you how to make a recipe that I love to make. It is simple and takes minimum effort to complete. This is one recipe on my blog that I have actually made before and it is delicious. Ingredients You Will Need: 2 8 oz. squares of cream cheese 1 cup of ranch dressing 3/4 cup of your favorite hot sauce (I usually add more than the 3/4 cup, I like a bit of a kick) 1 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese 2 10 oz. cans of chicken breast tortilla chips for dipping in the dip 1 crock pot How to Make the Dip: Start by turning the crock pot on high to get it nice and warm. Add the cream cheese and allow it to soften up so it is easier to stir in with the rest of the ingredients. Once the cream cheese has started to soften up, add your ranch and hot sauce. I add these two ingredients next because once they start to get warm it helps with melting the cheese. Now that the cream cheese has nearly melted and you have added your ranch and hot s
