Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly into the bottom of an oven-safe baking dish (approximately 9-inch round or square).
Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese and 0.5 cup of grated Parmesan cheese over the cream cheese layer.
Evenly spread the pizza sauce over the cheese layer.
Top the pizza sauce with the remaining 1 cup of mozzarella cheese and 0.5 cup of Parmesan cheese.
Arrange the pepperoni slices evenly over the top layer of cheese. If desired, sprinkle the diced bell pepper and black olives over the pepperoni.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges are slightly golden.
Carefully remove the dip from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with slices of French bread, crackers, or your choice of dippers.
