Instructions
Drain the smoked oysters and gently pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess liquid.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and butter. Use a handheld mixer or a wooden spoon to blend until smooth and creamy.
Add the smoked oysters to the bowl and mash them into the cream cheese mixture using a fork. Mix well to ensure the oysters are evenly distributed.
Stir in the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Transfer the spread to a serving dish and smooth the surface with a spoon or spatula.
Sprinkle paprika and freshly chopped parsley on top for garnish.
