Instructions
Prepare the Cucumbers
Slice the cucumbers thin and toss with salt in a colander. Allow them to drain for 10 minutes then press gently to remove excess water before using.
Mix the Creamy Dressing
In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Stir in the garlic, dill, onion powder, white wine vinegar, and black pepper.
Combine Cucumbers and Dressing
Fold the drained cucumber slices into the cream cheese mixture and stir gently until every slice is well coated in the creamy dressing.
Chill the Salad
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 10 minutes before serving so the flavors meld together beautifully.
Serve and Garnish
Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with extra fresh dill and a light sprinkle of black pepper. Serve cold.
