A delightful and creamy shrimp spread perfect for parties or gatherings.
Allow the cream cheese to come to room temperature until softened.
Softened cream cheese blends more easily with the other ingredients.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, and ketchup.
Mix thoroughly to ensure a smooth and even base.
Add the chopped onion, Worcestershire sauce, horseradish, and dill weed to the mixture.
Adjust the seasoning to taste at this stage.
Fold in the cooked shrimp, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Chop the shrimp into smaller pieces if desired for a smoother spread.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the spread for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Chilling allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Serve the shrimp spread chilled with crackers or fresh vegetables.
Garnish with a sprig of fresh dill for an elegant touch.
