Thanks so much, I have been looking for this recipe for a long time. My sister in law used to make this for parties and I never got the recipe before she passed away. This is perfect and always a hit.

Very tasty and a great way to use up some leftover rotisserie chicken that I had on hand. Used my kitchenaid mixer to whip it all up and now we have a nice appetizer to snack on during the football game tonight and this weekend. Will definitely make this again.

This recipe is so delicious. I've been making it every holiday season since the early 80s from the recipe I found on the back of a box of Ritz crackers. Everyone I've ever made it for loved it, but then I loaned the recipe to a friend a few years ago (yes, the actual recipe cut off the Ritz box) and she lost it. I've been looking for it online ever since so I can start making it again for our Christmas Eve family get together. Everyone will be elated that I was able to find the recipe again. Thanks for posting!
