Add 4 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise, and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice in a medium mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer, blend the ingredients until creamy.
Next, add ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder, ⅛ teaspoon of Kosher salt, 2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill, and 2 teaspoons finely chopped green onions. Blend again until the ingredients are combined. Cover and place in the refrigerator while preparing the remainder of the recipe.
Cut the slices of smoked salmon into small bite-sized portions.
Now it’s time to assemble! Remove the cream cheese mixture from the refrigerator. Start an assembly line beginning with crackers and cucumber slices. Place the crackers and cucumbers on a serving platter. Top each with cream cheese spread, a small piece of smoked salmon, and a few capers, and sprinkle with chopped fresh dill.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes
It’s best to assemble this appetizer the day you serve it. You can make the cream cheese mixture ahead of time for quicker assembly.
