Ingredients

cooking spray
1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
1 (12 fluid ounce) bottle Buffalo wing sauce (such as Frank's®)
1 (1 ounce) package ranch dressing mix
1 rotisserie chicken, meat removed and chopped
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
1 cup panko bread crumbs
¼ cup melted butter

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes. Drain.
Stir sour cream and cream cheese together in a bowl until smooth; add evaporated milk. Stir Buffalo wing sauce and ranch dressing into sour cream mixture; mix in shredded chicken, macaroni, and 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese. Pour macaroni mixture into prepared baking dish. Top with bread crumbs and remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese; drizzle melted butter over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and golden, 20 to 30 minutes.
