Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Fresh strawberries
- 4 oz Low-fat cream cheese, softened
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp Powdered sugar
- 1 tsp Honey
- 2 tbsp Graham cracker crumbs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Using a small paring knife, carefully hull the strawberries by removing the green tops and a small portion of the inner core to create space for the filling.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened low-fat cream cheese, vanilla extract, powdered sugar, and honey. Mix well until the filling is smooth and creamy.
Transfer the cream cheese mixture into a piping bag fitted with a small star tip or a zip-top bag with one corner snipped off.
Pipe the filling into the hollowed-out center of each strawberry, ensuring they are well-filled but not overflowing.
Sprinkle the tops of the stuffed strawberries with graham cracker crumbs for an optional crunchy garnish.
Arrange the stuffed strawberries on a serving platter and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.
Serve chilled as a refreshing and low-fat dessert or snack.
