Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • ½ lb cooked small shrimp, patted dry and roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup cocktail sauce

Method
 

  1. In a bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Mix in the lemon juice, Worcestershire, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Gently fold in the chopped shrimp until just combined.
  3. Spread the mixture into a shallow serving dish, spoon the cocktail sauce on top, and swirl it gently. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

Chill the dip for at least 30 minutes so it firms up and the flavors blend. If making ahead, wait to add the cocktail sauce until shortly before serving to keep the swirl defined.
