Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and sour cream. Stir until smooth and well blended.
Add 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese, the crumbled bacon (reserving a small amount for garnish), the diced tomatoes with green chilies, and diced jalapeños (if using). Mix thoroughly.
Transfer the mixture into a medium-sized baking dish and spread it evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly, and the cheese on top is melted.
Remove from the oven and garnish with the reserved bacon crumbles and sliced green onions.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips for dipping. Enjoy!
