Take the cream cheese out of the refrigerator 10-15 minutes before starting to allow it to soften slightly for easier blending.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and sour cream. Mix until smooth and creamy using a whisk or an electric mixer.
Finely chop the smoked salmon, fresh dill, and green onions.
Add the chopped smoked salmon, dill, green onions, lemon juice, capers, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt to the cream cheese mixture. Stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to your liking.
Transfer the dip to a serving dish. Garnish with a small sprig of dill or a few capers for a decorative touch, if desired.
Serve chilled or at room temperature with crackers, sliced baguette, or fresh vegetables like cucumber or celery sticks.
