Ingredients
Scale
- Creamy Dip Foundation:
- 2 cups (450g) cottage cheese, full-fat
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup buffalo wing sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt, full-fat
- Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning mix
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- Essential Seasonings:
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- Finishing Touches:
- ¼ cup chopped green onions
- 2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
Instructions
- Blend Base: Blend cottage cheese and Greek yogurt until super smooth and creamy. Ensure cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easy mixing. This creates the perfect foundation for your Creamy Cottage Cheese Buffalo Chicken Dip.
- Mix Flavors: In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, buffalo wing sauce, ranch seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until well incorporated and fragrant.
- Fold Ingredients: Gently fold the blended cottage cheese mixture into the buffalo cream cheese base. Add the shredded cooked chicken and most of the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until everything is evenly distributed and coated.
- Bake Dip: Transfer the mixture into a baking dish. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly around the edges. This ensures a perfectly warm Creamy Cottage Cheese Buffalo Chicken Dip.
- Melt Cheese: Remove the dish from the oven. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the hot dip. Return to the oven for another 3-5 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and gooey.
- Garnish & Serve: Garnish your delightful Creamy Cottage Cheese Buffalo Chicken Dip with fresh chopped green onions and crumbled blue cheese. Serve immediately with your favorite dippers for a satisfying, high-protein snack!
Notes
Blend full-fat cottage cheese and Greek yogurt until super smooth to prevent a grainy texture.
Store leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
Always use full-fat cottage cheese and Greek yogurt for ultimate creaminess; low-fat versions result in a soupy dip.
Serve this creamy buffalo chicken dip hot and bubbly, perfect with crisp veggies or warm pita bread.
Prepare the blended cottage cheese base and sauce ingredients separately up to two days in advance.
