Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or equivalent and set aside.
Thaw the frozen spinach and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. Pat it dry with paper towels if necessary.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and well-combined.
Stir in the minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, 1 cup of the smoked mozzarella cheese (reserve 0.5 cup for topping), salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
Add the chopped artichoke hearts and the prepared spinach to the bowl. Stir until evenly distributed.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the reserved 0.5 cup of smoked mozzarella cheese over the top of the mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly, and the cheese on top is golden brown.
Carefully remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, sliced baguette, or fresh vegetable sticks for dipping.
