These baked Buffalo Wings are awesome. Wonderfully tender and juicy, and the beautiful thing about this recipe is that you can control the heat without sacrificing the flavor. You can make them mild, like I did these wings for dinner last night, or you can make them fire breathing hot. However you choose to make them, you will still get that great Buffalo bite! The sauce is super good and so simple to make, and just adds another great layer of Buffalo flavor for the wings. I hope you will give them a try, because they are super easy to make, too! Enjoy!
