For a Buffalo Chicken Dip you only need a few main ingredients; Cream Cheese, Hot Sauce, Ranch, and Shredded Cheese. For this dip I love to use Frank’s Hot Sauce, but you can use any of your favorite hot sauces.

Also, you can’t forget about the chicken. I love to use canned chicken, but you can also boil and prep your own, if you prefer.

The best part is you can throw this in the crock pot and keep it warm for your holiday guests.

2. Easy Fruit Dip 

I love a good recipe that I can whip up in no time. This dip is one that comes together so quick and you will likely have all the ingredients on hand.  

This easy appetizer comes together so quickly, and it really tastes impressive. No one will believe it comes together in literal seconds. I love a simple recipe that will wow my guests.

This dip is so good to eat with strawberries, grapes, pineapple, and whatever fruits you love. But is also perfect to eat with sweet treats like cookies or graham crackers.

3. Cheese Ball Dip

This appetizer is a spin on a classic cheese ball. Growing up, Classic Cheese Ball was a staple at every big dinner or get-together. You know the one…beef, cream cheese, green onion…yum.

I don’t know if they were popular because they are so delicious, or because it was always the first thing ready to eat. I’m gonna say both.
