Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 2-3 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender. Drain and run them under cold water to stop the cooking. Finely chop the broccoli and set aside.
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Remove from heat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, sautéed garlic, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Fold in the chopped broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese, and half of the grated Parmesan cheese. Mix until evenly distributed.
Transfer the mixture into a baking dish and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let the dip cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with crusty bread, tortilla chips, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
