BUFFALO CHICKEN DIP

This is a great tasting dip and very easy to make.  Some friends brought this dip to a Super Bowl Party we gave a few years ago and it was a big hit and one of the things that ran out early.  In fact, you might think about doubling the recipe and putting it in a crock pot for the evening.
