I love this dip, and make it often. It is very popular wherever I take it! I have also made a crock pot version by mixing everything together and warming in a crock pot until cheeses are melted.

I always try to cut the fat....so I just used a red pepper humus and put rotisse chicken ( you can add some spice to chicken if you like...garlic or hot pepper sauce)...then stir in humus and dip...it is not as good but much better for you...this is such a good tip..I could not resist passing it along...use celery or pita or crackers to dip....

I do this but I make a huge pan and use a shredded rotisserie chicken a full jar of Frank's original hot sauce and let the chicken marinate in the sauce for several hours.... then pour it over the spread out cream cheese then layer (w a fresh jar from the cold section of dressing) blue cheese and then shredded cheese then bake

We love this dip at our house. My nephew likes me to make it and then he puts in a tortilla and makes burritos with it. **Alexis, - I toss my chicken in the buffalo sauce first then add it to the pan. That way all the chicken is coated. Then I continue layering like the directions say but omitting the buffalo sauce.

I’m a little disappointed with how my dip turned out. I followed the directions, but my final product didn’t looked as mixed as the picture displayed for this recipe. I had to mix it myself, which wasn’t a huge deal, I was just a little nervous as I was expecting my finish product to look almost the same as the picture displayed. Aren’t I supposed to layer all the ingredients, or am I supposed to mix some together before putting them in the pan? Either way, it tasted fine!

I love this dip! But I just throw all the ingredients in a saucepan and heat it up. So fast and good! Club crackers are our favorite thing to eat it with. And I get canned Costco chicken instead of fresh just to save on time. Tastes just as great!

Has been requested at many parties in our group. I mix everything together with some reserved cheese for the top. Awesome!

I love this dip - so does everyone else. I make mine in the crockpot - travels well and stays hot. I have also doubled the recipe and used Ranch Dressing mix, sour cream and blue cheese crumbles in place of the dressing! It's a no-fail dip - cook in crockpot for about 2 hours on low. I go to Panera and have them slice a baguette or two to take with me. Always a hit.

This dip tastes exactly like a buffalo wing dipped in blue cheese, and for that, I give it five stars. Oddly, I did not care for those flavors as a dip -just my personal preference.
