A creamy, spicy Halloween Buffalo Chicken Dip topped with cheesy ghosts — the ultimate easy party appetizer for Halloween night.
Ingredients
2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)
½ cup buffalo sauce (adjust for spice level)
8 oz cream cheese (softened)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup ranch dressing
6–8 slices white cheese (for ghosts)
Black decorating gel or mini olives (for eyes)
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, toss shredded chicken with buffalo sauce until evenly coated.
2. Soften cream cheese in the microwave for 15–20 seconds if needed, then spread it evenly in your baking dish.
3. Spoon the buffalo chicken mixture over the cream cheese and smooth it out. Drizzle with ranch dressing.
4. Use a ghost cookie cutter to cut shapes from white cheese slices and arrange them on top.
5. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15–20 minutes or until bubbly.
6. Once out of the oven, dot each ghost with decorating gel or olive bits for eyes. Serve warm.
