3. Add garlic, chopped artichokes, spinach, half of the mozzarella, and all the Parmesan. Mix well.

4. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Taste and adjust seasoning.

5. Transfer the mixture into an oven-safe baking dish.

Use well-drained spinach and artichokes to prevent sogginess.

Let cream cheese soften at room temperature for smoother mixing.

Broil the top for the last 2 minutes if you want a crispier cheese crust.
