How to Make Herbed Cream Cheese Dip

In a food processor or blender, combine cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, fresh herbs, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Blend until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the dip to prevent a skin from forming.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and deepen.
Serve chilled with your favorite dippers such as cucumber slices, crackers, vegetables, or alongside smoked salmon in pastry shells.
