Absolutely, Assemble the dip (unbaked) up to 24 hours ahead. Just cover and refrigerate, then add 5 extra minutes to the bake time when you're ready. Easy party prep.

How to reduce the heat?

Swap half the hot sauce for melted butter or use mild sauce like Frank's Mild Wing Sauce. My aunt does this and it's still packed with flavor.

Rotisserie chicken is my MVP - just shred it while warm. Leftover grilled chicken works great too (and adds awesome smoky notes).

Can I freeze leftovers?

Honestly, the texture changes a bit, but it's still tasty. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat with extra milk to bring back creaminess.
