Drain canned chicken and put in medium sauce pan. Add hot sauce and cook on medium until heated throughout. My personal favorite is Frank's hot sauce. Add cream cheese and stir until blended thoroughly. Add ranch dressing and mix. Add 1-1/2 cups of cheddar cheese and heat for a few minutes until mixed and melted. Pour the dip into the crock pot and sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on the top. Keep heated on low. I serve on baguette that has been sliced and toasted. However, it is also tasty on corn chips.
