BUFFALO CHICKEN MAC & CHEESE Bites 🌶️🧀🍗
Two game day favorites in one bite?! Yes please 😍 I absolutely love Buffalo chicken dip during football season, so why not elevate it slightly into a perfectly portioned, cheesy & fun appetizer! Easy to make ahead, heat up when ready & I promise everyone will love these 🙌🏻 

8oz box of your favorite pasta, cooked (I’m using eatbanza macaroni)
2 tbsp ghee / butter
2 tbsp flour 
1 c milk of choice (I used elmhurst1925 cashew)
1 c shredded mild cheddar (from a block is best)
1/4 tsp of each salt, pepper, garlic powder
1/3c  buffalo sauce (I used primalkitchenfoods) 
1 c finely chopped chicken breast
Topping: 1/4c of panko + 1/4c shredded parmsean
Chopped parsley, extra hot sauce for garnish 

Preheat the oven to 400 F. Grease a nonstick mini muffin pan (can use regular but the bake time will increase, see note below) very well with nonstick cooking spray.
Cook noodles according to package LESS 2 minutes - because you’ll be baking these the noodles can be slightly undercooked / have a bite to them, otherwise it’ll be too mushy. Drain the pasta & set aside. 
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt butter & whisk in the flour. Cook for 1 minute. While whisking, add the milk. The mixture will begin to thicken, add seasonings & whisk again. Stir in the cheddar until fully melted & sauce is smooth, remove from heat. Add Buffalo sauce, chicken, noodles & mix until everything is coated/combiner. 
Portion your mac & cheese into the muffin cups with a spoon, making sure to pack the mixture into the cups well otherwise they won’t hold their shape when you take them out after baking! Sprinkle with panko/parm topping. 
Bake for 15-20 minutes, until bubbling & golden brown. Remove & let cool for at least 10 minutes, then carefully run a knife or toothpick around the edges to loosen. Present on a plate with extra hot sauce & parsley, enjoy!
