In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it into small crumbles with a spoon. Drain any excess grease.
Add the taco seasoning mix to the cooked ground beef along with the amount of water specified on the seasoning packet (usually about 2/3 cup). Stir to combine and simmer for a few minutes until the mixture thickens. Set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, soften the cream cheese for about 20-30 seconds, or until easily spreadable.
In a 9x9-inch baking dish (or similar size), spread the softened cream cheese evenly on the bottom as the first layer.
Spread the sour cream evenly over the cream cheese layer as the second layer.
Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the sour cream layer.
Top the cheddar cheese layer with the seasoned ground beef mixture, spreading it out evenly.
Pour the can of diced tomatoes with green chilies (do not drain) evenly over the beef layer.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Optional: Garnish the top with sliced jalapeños and chopped green onions before serving.
Serve warm with tortilla chips on the side for dipping. Enjoy!
