  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese with hot pepper sauce. Blend until smooth and evenly mixed.
  3. Stir in diced cooked chicken, ranch dressing, and shredded Cheddar cheese. Fold until evenly combined.
  4. Spread mixture evenly into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Smooth the top with a spatula.

Notes

Adjust spice by using milder or hotter pepper sauce, or add cayenne for extra heat. Make ahead by assembling the dip a day in advance and baking before serving. For a twist, substitute ranch with blue cheese dressing or try Monterey Jack cheese instead of Cheddar.
