Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to cool, then crumble into small pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix with a hand mixer or spoon until smooth and well blended.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, black pepper, and optional hot sauce. Mix until fully combined.
Fold in the crumbled bacon, saving a small portion to sprinkle on top of the dip later.
Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the reserved bacon pieces over the top for added crunch and garnish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly, with a slightly golden crust on top.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve with bread, crackers, or veggie sticks for dipping. Enjoy the cheesy, bacon-packed goodness!
