- 2 tbsp hot sauce
- 1 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
- 3 stalks green onions, sliced

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well until smooth.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, shredded pepper jack cheese, diced jalapeños, cooked and crumbled bacon (reserve a little for garnish), and hot sauce. Stir until evenly combined.
Transfer the dip mixture into an oven-safe baking dish. Spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle a small amount of additional shredded cheddar cheese on top for a gooey finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and the cheese on top is melted and lightly golden.
