In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and sour cream. Using a hand mixer or a sturdy spatula, beat until the mixture is smooth and creamy with no lumps.
Add the finely chopped dill pickles, pickle juice, chopped fresh dill, garlic powder, and onion powder to the bowl.
Stir everything together until all ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the cream cheese base.
Taste the dip and season with freshly ground black pepper as needed. You likely won't need extra salt due to the pickles and pickle juice.
Serve immediately with potato chips, pretzels, crackers, or fresh vegetables. For best flavor, you can cover and chill the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
