In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, buffalo wing sauce, ranch or blue cheese dressing, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until well combined.

3. Transfer to Baking Dish:
Spread the mixture evenly in a baking dish (an 8×8-inch dish works well).

4. Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly.

5. Optional Toppings:
If using, sprinkle crumbled blue cheese on top and return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the blue cheese is melted. If preferred, garnish with finely chopped chives or green onions.

– You can reheat leftovers before serving them after storing them in the fridge for up to three days.
