Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Fresh strawberries
- 4 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Graham cracker crumbs (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly and gently pat them dry with a paper towel.
Using a small paring knife, slice off the green leafy tops of each strawberry to create a flat base so they can stand upright.
Carefully hollow out the inside of each strawberry using the tip of the knife or a small melon baller. Be sure not to cut all the way through.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
Mix the cream cheese mixture with a hand mixer or whisk until smooth and creamy.
Transfer the cream cheese filling into a piping bag fitted with a small star tip or a zip-top bag with one corner snipped off.
Pipe the cream cheese filling into the hollowed-out strawberries, filling them generously.
Sprinkle the tops of the filled strawberries with graham cracker crumbs for extra texture and flavor, if desired.
Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
