Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub and poke sweet potatoes all over with a fork. Rub with olive oil and salt. Bake for 45–60 minutes until tender. Cool for 10 minutes.
In a large bowl, shred the cooked chicken. Add softened cream cheese, buffalo sauce, melted butter, and half of the cheddar cheese. Stir until evenly combined.
Cut a slit in each baked sweet potato. Scoop out some of the flesh and mix it into the chicken filling. Spoon the buffalo chicken mixture back into each potato skin.
Reduce oven to 375°F (190°C). Return stuffed potatoes to the baking sheet and bake for 15–20 minutes until the cheese melts and tops are bubbly.
Garnish with chopped green onions, blue cheese crumbles, and a drizzle of ranch dressing. Serve hot with celery sticks.
For a crispy top, broil for 2 minutes at the end until the cheese is golden brown.
