Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese room temperature (1 brick)
- 1 cup sour cream room temperature
- 1 ounce ranch seasoning mix 1 packet
- 8 lices thick-cut bacon cooked, crumbled, and divided
- 3 green onions sliced, divided
- 2 cups freshly shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray the inside of a 1-quart oven-safe baking dish with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
- In a large bowl, using a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the sour cream and ranch seasoning, mixing well.
- Use a rubber spatula to fold in the bacon and 2 of the green onions, reserving about ¼ cup of each for the top.
- Fold in 1½ cups of cheddar cheese and ½ cup of the Colby Jack cheese, followed by the shredded chicken.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Bake for 25 minutes.
- Carefully remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle on the remaining cheeses and bacon, then bake (or broil on low) for another 3-5 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Top with the remaining green onions. Serve immediately with your favorite dippers.
