Smoked cream cheese took the internet by storm in the last year or two, and for good reason. It is delicious, simple to make, almost entirely hands-off, and people LOVE it. This version is a spicy take on the incredible buffalo sauce that we all know and love!

Buffalo smoked cream cheese is great as a dip, sandwich spread, or as a base for other recipes too. You could mix some into our Buffalo Mac and Cheese and make it even creamier. You could make some Panko Chicken and use that as a vehicle to get this to your face too. We’re not judging.
