In a medium bowl, beat 8 oz softened cream cheese and 1/2 cup softened butter together until completely smooth and creamy.
Add 1 clove minced garlic, 2 tbsp fresh parsley, 1/2 tsp dried dill weed, 1/2 tsp dried marjoram, 1/2 tsp dried basil, 1/2 tsp dried chives, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and 1/4 tsp salt.
Fold the herb mixture into the cream cheese base until thoroughly incorporated.
Transfer the cheese mixture to a serving dish, or shape it into a log using plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours to firm up.
Serve chilled or at room temperature with crackers, pretzel sticks, or fresh vegetables.
