Ingredients
- 2 (8-ounce/227g) blocks cream cheese softened
- ¾ cup hot sauce 180ml, Frank’s Original Red Hot Sauce brand
- ½ cup ranch dressing (120ml)
- 8 ounces cheddar cheese divided, shredded

- 3 cups chicken about 1 rotisserie chicken, cooked shredded
- celery stick to serve
- tortilla chip to serve
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, Frank’s hot sauce, and ranch. Stir together until smooth. (You can use an electric hand or stand mixer if desired.)
- Stir in the 6 ounces of cheddar, blue cheese, and green onion. Stir in the shredded chicken until well incorporated. Transfer the mixture to an 8x8-inch baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining cheddar cheese.
- Bake until mixture is bubbling, about 25 to 30 minutes.
- Let dip cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with remaining green onion just before serving. Serve with celery sticks and tortilla chips.

Notes
- If your cream cheese is cold, place it in a microwave-safe bowl and warm it in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds.
- You can double the recipe without changing the cooking time if you plan to serve a larger crowd.
- If you don’t like blue cheese, you can swap it for mozzarella cheese.
- Add your cooked chicken to the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment to quickly shred the chicken. Run the mixer on low to shred the chicken to your desired consistency.
- If this dip sits out too long and the cheese is no longer gooey, you can heat it back up in the oven for a few minutes, and it’ll be warm, cheesy, and gooey again.
