Start by cooking the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until it is crispy. Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease and allow it to cool. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small bits.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the sour cream and softened cream cheese. Mix thoroughly until smooth and creamy.
Add the crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir together until all the ingredients are evenly combined.
Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and garnish with extra green onions or bacon crumbles if desired.
Serve immediately with crackers, chips, vegetable sticks, or bread slices. The dip can also be covered and chilled in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before serving to let the flavors meld even further.
