Steps:

• Spray the inside of a 6-quart oval slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray. Lay the chicken breasts in an even layer in the bottom of the slow cooker. Pour the chicken broth over the chicken breasts, then sprinkle the Ranch seasoning on top.
• Add the lid, and cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4 to 5 hours. Do not remove the lid while the chicken is cooking.
• After the chicken cooks, use two forks to shred the chicken. Don't drain the broth. Add the softened cream cheese. Stir until creamy and the cream cheese is melted.
• Next, add half the cheddar cheese, half the crumbled bacon, and half the green onion. Stir to combine. Top the crack chicken with the remaining cheese and bacon.
• Place the lid back on the slow cooker for 5 to 10 minutes, just long enough to melt the cheese. Remove the lid, and add the green onions.
