Rinse the strawberries thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Using a paring knife, carefully hull each strawberry to remove the stem and create a small cavity in the center. Be sure not to cut through the bottom of the strawberry.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and heavy cream.
Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat the mixture until smooth and creamy.
Transfer the cream filling into a piping bag fitted with a small round tip. Alternatively, use a resealable plastic bag with one corner snipped off.
Pipe the cream filling into the cavity of each prepared strawberry until full.
If desired, sprinkle graham cracker crumbs over the top of the filled strawberries for additional texture and flavor.
For an elegant touch, garnish with a small piece of fresh mint leaf on each strawberry.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving for the best texture and flavor.
