Soften the cream cheese by letting it sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes or microwave for 10-15 seconds.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly incorporate the seasonings.
