Buffalo Chicken Dip

Yikes, it's been a while since I've updated the good ole' recipe blog. Here is my "go to" dip recipe. 
Buffalo Chicken Dip

Ingredients:
1 cup of ranch dressing (I like Hidden Valley the best)
2 (8 ounce) packages of cream cheese (I use the light version)
1 whole cooked chicken (I just pick up the cooked chicken at Sams Club, original flavor)
3/4 of a cup of Franks Red Hot original sauce
1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese

Directions:
1. Leave the cream cheese out until it reaches room temperature
2. Pull apart chicken to make small pieces
3. In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces, ranch dressing, & Red Hot sauce. Make sure all ingredients are combined well
4. In an 8 by 8 square pan, layer the room temperature cream cheese on the bottom of the pan
5. Place chicken mixture on top
6. Cover with cheddar cheese
7. Heat in a 350 degree oven until the cheese is nice and bubbly, about 20 minutes

Notes:
This is best served hot with celery and thick crackers. Yum :)
Feel free to add tabasco for if you like things nice and spicy.
