Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 1 cup buffalo sauce
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 2 bread bowls
Instructions
- Prepare the Dip: In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, softened cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and ranch dressing. Stir until smooth and well-mixed.
- Hollow the Bread Bowls: Cut the tops off the bread bowls and remove the insides, leaving a thick crust to hold the dip. Set aside the removed bread for dipping.
- Fill the Bowls: Spoon the dip mixture into the hollowed-out bread bowls.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the filled bread bowls on a baking sheet and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the dip is bubbling and golden.
- Serve: Slice the reserved bread into chunks for dipping and enjoy the cheesy goodness!
Notes
- For extra flavor, sprinkle some crumbled blue cheese on top before baking.
- Substitute ranch with blue cheese dressing for a tangier twist.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
