6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the edges are bubbly and the top is golden brown. Tip: Check at 20 minutes—if it’s not browned enough, broil for 1-2 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
7. Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Creamy and hearty, this dip boasts a rich texture from the melted cheeses and a savory punch from the beef and artichokes. The spinach adds a subtle earthiness that balances the richness perfectly. Try scooping it with toasted baguette slices or crispy tortilla chips for a satisfying crunch that complements the creamy center.

Serving: 8 | Pre Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients
– 1 pound of ground beef (80/20 works best for flavor)
– 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
– 2 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 cup of Frank’s RedHot Buffalo Sauce
– 8 ounces of cream cheese, softened at room temp
– 1 cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
– 1/2 cup of ranch dressing (store-bought or homemade)
– A splash of Worcestershire sauce
– A couple of green onions, sliced for garnish
– Tortilla chips or celery sticks for serving
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F and grab a medium oven-safe skillet.
2. Brown the ground beef in the skillet over medium-high heat for 5–7 minutes, breaking it into crumbles with a spatula—no pink should remain.
3. Tip: Drain any excess grease from the beef to keep the dip from getting oily.
4. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet, cooking for 3–4 minutes until the onion turns translucent and fragrant.
5. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the cream cheese until it melts smoothly into the beef mixture, about 2 minutes.
6. Pour in the Frank’s RedHot Buffalo Sauce, ranch dressing, and a splash of Worcestershire sauce, mixing everything until well combined.
7. Tip: For extra heat, add an extra tablespoon of Buffalo sauce here.
8. Fold in 3/4 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese, reserving the rest for the top.
9. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar evenly over the dip.
10. Bake in the preheated oven for 15–20 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown on top.
11. Tip: Let it cool for 5 minutes after baking—it’ll thicken up perfectly for dipping.
12. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately with tortilla chips or celery sticks.
Every scoop delivers a creamy, tangy kick with that classic Buffalo zing, balanced by rich beef and melty cheese. Try it stuffed into slider buns for a next-level burger twist, or keep it simple with a big bowl of crispy chips—either way, it disappears fast.
