This easy Buffalo Chicken Dip is delicious and perfect for the big game! This baked appetizer is the best way to feed a hungry crowd. This is a high-protein, lightened-up version of the classic dish with all the flavor still there! It is made with buffalo sauce, chicken, cottage cheese, shredded cheese, greek yogurt, ranch seasoning, and green onions. Serve it with a side of carrots, celery, or chips, and watch it disappear.

Since some of you are insisting it’s Fall now, I Since some of you are insisting it’s Fall now, I thought I’d share my favorite protein hot chocolate recipe! 

Make any hot chocolate mix but make sure it’s super hot!! Then, whisk together 4 ounces of milk with half a scoop of @cleansimpleeats protein powder until smooth. Protein powder doesn’t like to be hot so whisk it in until it’s blended, then pour it in the hot cocoa as a “creamer” if you will! 

It’ll cool down the drink and add protein!! Would work in coffee too if that’s your jam. Try it! 

I’m using #cseprotein snickerdoodle but any flavor works! Code AlexDaynes always saves you a little money too! #cseproffee

Prep Time: 35 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Additional Time: 8 hours
Total Time: 8 hours 50 minutes

INGREDIENTS

3/4 cup butter
3 cups crushed cornflakes
2 teaspoons cinnamon
5 Tablespoons sugar

For the Ice Cream

1 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup evaporated milk
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoons vanilla

Just Before Serving

warm caramel sauce
whipping cream
maraschino cherries

METHOD

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the cornflakes and cinnamon and stir until golden brown, roughly five minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the sugar. Cool completely.
To a stand mixer, beat the heavy cream, evaporated milk, and salt until stiff peaks form. Gradually pour in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla until thickened again.
Add half the cornflake mixture to the bottom of a greased or lined 9×9 pan. Pour the ice cream filling over the crust. Sprinkle the remaining cornflakes over the ice cream. Cover and freeze overnight.
Cut the bars into desired servings and top each with warmed caramel sauce, whipping cream, and maraschino cherries.
