# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • They combine all the flavors of Buffalo chicken pizza dip with the convenience of handheld sliders.
  • The creamy, tangy filling soaks into soft rolls and gets topped with bubbling melted cheese.
  • You can assemble them ahead and bake right before guests arrive.
  • They're ridiculously easy to scale up for big gatherings.
02 -
  • If your cream cheese is cold, the mixture will be lumpy and hard to spread, so always let it soften first.
  • Covering with foil during the first bake prevents the tops from burning while the filling heats through.
  • These sliders are messy by nature, so serve them with plenty of napkins.
03 -
  • Use a serrated knife to slice the buns cleanly without squishing them.
  • Brush the garlic butter all the way to the edges so every bite has that crispy, buttery flavor.
  • If the tops are browning too fast, tent loosely with foil during the final minutes.
