Notes

To make ahead, prepare the dip up to the point of baking, cover with foil, and refrigerate. When ready, bake as directed. Optional add-ins include green onions, diced jalapenos, or chopped cooked bacon. To keep warm during parties, transfer to a mini slow cooker and set to warm. You can freeze leftovers in a freezer-safe container and reheat in the oven or microwave. For gluten-free, ensure ranch dressing and hot sauce are gluten-free and choose appropriate dippers.
