Drizzle the olive oil over the mixture and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Stir everything thoroughly until all the herbs and garlic are evenly incorporated into the cheese spread.
Transfer the spread to a serving dish and chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving, to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve with fresh bread, crackers, or vegetable sticks. Enjoy!
