When we have family gatherings, everyone brings a dish to share. I usually bring Oreo Dessert, but this one particular year, I was asked to bring this easy recipe – Buffalo Chicken Dip – to our Christmas party.
I had never made it before but I was up for the task! So, I did what any good home cook would do, I turned to Google and researches a bunch of recipes, and combined them for this amazingly cheesy dip. It turned out delicious!
I’m often asked “what is your favorite kind of dip to make in a crock-pot?” and this dip is always the 1st on my list!
What started out as a joke has become my #1 appetizer recipe on All Things Mamma year after year and especially during football season. Little did I know this Crockpot Buffalo Chicken Dip would become my signature dish for any gathering and especially a Super Bowl Party!
