Cream cheese, hot sauce, salad dressing, cheese, and shredded chicken are a given, but there are variations on what goes into Buffalo chicken dip. Frank's Red Hot Sauce is the most popular, but a less spicy hot sauce can be substituted. I used Ranch salad dressing, but blue cheese is popular as well. Cheddar, Mozzarella, Monterey Jack, and/or Blue Cheese work well, and one that is gooey when melted is excellent. The chicken can be shredded from a rotisserie chicken, some baked or roasted chicken breasts, and even canned chicken if desperate (not my favorite!).
