Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Steam the broccoli florets for 3-5 minutes or until tender. Remove from heat, pat dry with a paper towel, and chop finely.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Mix until smooth and well combined.
Fold the chopped steamed broccoli into the cheese mixture until evenly distributed.
Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish or an oven-safe serving dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the dip is bubbly and golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with crackers, toasted bread slices, or fresh vegetable sticks for dipping.
