This looks so yummy I have been craving a great buffalo chicken dip all month. I was at a party on Saturday and was thoroughly disappointed by the one presented it was runny- I love the bake dip with the cheese.. I can wait to try it!!!
Thanks for mentioning me bestie : ). FYI.. This is also great in the crockpot! Keeps a large amount of dip hot and ready for your football crowd!
mmmmmmmm this looks really amazing. Definitely not a fan of Neufchatel cheese in general, but I imagine you wouldn’t even notice in this recipe 🙂

You can’t even tell that is it Neufchatel in the dip. It’s that good!
Perfect recipe for football season! Thanks for sharing.
This is my go-to party recipe lately. My husband could gobble this up all on his own.
I had a friend who said this is delicious on little potato slider rolls!
My husband is such a cheese lover and would flip out over this dip!
I’m not sure my husband will let me make a Steelers Fans recipe, but I won’t tell him when I make it for the Eagles game, jk.
This sounds awesome. I love, love, love Frank’s hot sauce too!
Looks DELECTABLE! I have to say, I have an affinity for those foods that get turned into dips. Another good one to try I made once is Jalapeno Popper dip. I made it off the cuff and it turned out wonderfully. I just thought of what was in a Jalapeno Popper. (I did add Bacon, which I think made the dip). Thanks for the share, I will add this to my arsenal for my next party!
This yummy dip just looks ready for a football watching party! Pinning!

Buffalo Chicken Dip is my sons favorite dip:) I love the addition of all the cheese that tops your. Will have to let him whip this recipe up for us! Thanks for sharing with us at the Merry Monday Link Party:)
I have lived in Buffalo my entire life and chicken wings are always served with blue cheese, not ranch. I realize some people don’t like blue cheese, and I’m sure your recipe is delicious, we just make it a little different here. My recipe that everyone always asks for is as follows:
1 brick of cream cheese
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cooked
Anchor bar chicken wing sauce (not Frank’s hot sauce) different taste
Bottle of blue cheese dressing
2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
Shred cooked chicken and cover with chicken wing sauce in a bowl. Spread cream cheese on bottom of 9×11 pan, spread chicken mixture on top, cover with blue cheese and then cover with mozzarella. Cook for 30 min at 350. Serve with tortilla chips.
