Franks Red Hot Buffalo Chicken Dip

1 pkg (8oz) Cream Cheese
2 cans (9.75 oz) Canned Chicken breat meat- like for chicken salad
1/2 C Franks Red Hot Buffalo Sauce
1/2 C Ranch Dressing
1/2 C Monty Jack/ Colby Blend Shredded Cheese

1. Stir Cream Cheese in a baking dish until softened and smooth. Then add all remaining ingredients and mix well.
2. Bake at 350 for 20 min or until hot a bubbling. Stir and serve with crackers or Tostitos. I like the Scoops it picks up the dip good.

I bet you could heat it in a little crock pot too, I haven't tried it yet though.
