Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Gather your mixing bowl and a hand mixer or spatula.
  2. Combine the softened cream cheese and sour cream in a mixing bowl. Mix until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Add the buffalo sauce and garlic powder to the creamy mixture. Stir thoroughly until well combined, about 1 minute.
  4. Fold in the diced chicken until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
  5. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until mostly combined, leaving some streaks for a rustic look.
  6. Spread the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of your dip mixture.
  7. Transfer to a greased baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, and then top with diced green onions before serving hot.
