Hot Baked Spinach Artichoke Dip
- Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Put the thawed spinach in a clean kitchen towel and twist it over the sink to squeeze out as much water as you can. This keeps the dip from going runny.
- In a large bowl, stir the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic, salt, pepper and pepper flakes until smooth.
- Stir in the spinach, artichokes, 3/4 cup mozzarella and the Parmesan.
- Spread in an 8x8-inch baking dish or 1 1/2-quart dish and sprinkle the remaining mozzarella on top.
- Bake until hot and bubbling at the edges and golden in spots.
- Cool 5 minutes, then serve with chips, crackers or bread.
