# Cooking Tips:

01 -
  • They combine the best parts of Buffalo chicken dip and sliders into one handheld bite that people devour.
  • You can assemble them ahead of time and just pop them in the oven when guests arrive.
  • The buttery garlic topping on those soft buns creates a golden crust that contrasts perfectly with the creamy, spicy filling.
02 -
  • If your cream cheese isnt soft enough, it will leave lumps in the dip, so let it sit out for at least 30 minutes before you start.
  • Covering the sliders with foil for the first part of baking is crucial, otherwise the tops will brown too fast before the cheese melts inside.
  • Use a sharp serrated knife to slice the buns in half horizontally without tearing them, it makes a huge difference in presentation.
03 -
  • Brush the garlic butter all the way to the edges of the buns so every bite has that buttery, garlicky flavor.
  • Dont skip the foil step, it keeps the buns from drying out and ensures the cheese melts evenly before the tops brown.
  • If you want them extra crispy on top, turn on the broiler for the last minute or two, but watch them closely so they dont burn.
