Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spritz or brush lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, combine 4 oz cream cheese (softened), 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, 1 ½ cups chicken (shredded), ¼ cup green onions (diced), ½ tsp crushed red pepper, ½ tsp salt, and ½ tsp garlic powder. Mix until the cheeses and seasonings are fully combined and smooth.
Lay one flour tortilla (soft taco size) flat. Spread about 1 heaping tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture across the center of the tortilla, leaving the edges clear. Top the cheese mixture with about 2 tablespoons of shredded chicken (use the chicken included in the combined mixture as needed).
Roll the tortilla tightly and place it seam side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat step 3–4 with the remaining tortillas, arranging them in a single layer without touching.
Lightly spray the tops of the rolled flautas with cooking spray.
Bake for 13–15 minutes, then carefully turn each flauta over and bake an additional 7 minutes, or until evenly browned and crisp.
Remove from the oven and let rest 2–3 minutes before serving.
