how to make buffalo chicken pinwheels (50 sec):
- Place all of the ingredients into a medium mixing bowl, except the tortillas … of course, and beat with an electric mixer until well combined and spreadable.
- Put about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the mixture on a tortilla and spread evenly. Roll the tortilla up and repeat until you’ve used all of the mixture.
- Place the roll-ups in the fridge for an hour or two to firm up. This will make it easier to cut them into slices.
- Cut each pinwheel into 1 inch slices, place on a serving platter and enjoy. Easy peasy!
To make this dip super easy, I used canned chicken breasts, but you can use any cooked chicken you have on hand.
If you want to use your own chicken breast instead of using canned chicken, I suggest cooking the chicken breast in your slow cooker. Chicken that has been slow cooked is the easiest chicken to shred for dips like this one. Try my Easy Crockpot Shredded Chicken recipe!
These really are the perfect finger food for any party, in any season. Make sure to double the recipe, your guest will be begging for more!
