BUFFALO CHICKEN WINGS WITH BLUE CHEESE DIP

Buffalo Chicken Wings With Blue Cheese Dip image

This recipe doesn't make my wings crispy, like I like them, but they are very flavorful, and you know...not fried. I did double the bake time for mine. This recipe is from Ina Garten's book Barefood Contessa Family Style.
