In a bowl, mix together the cream cheese (room temperature), mayonnaise, lemon juice, garlic powder, and hot sauce.

Stir the oysters into the cream cheese mixture, together with two tablespoons of the chopped fresh parsley. Taste for seasoning and add salt, pepper, and more hot sauce if desired.

Transfer the dip into a serving bowl. Sprinkle with the remaining parsley and bacon.

Cover and store in the fridge until required, removing ten minutes before serving.
