I absolutely love these stuffed strawberries! I love how light and refreshing they are. The taste reminds me a lot of strawberry cheesecake... except these are portion sized and lower in calories! I make them as soon as the strawberries start to come into season and they are always a great hit at parties.
They are wonderful to make for baby showers or a get-together. They also make a great food presentation. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do! :-)
Stuffed Strawberries Recipe
You will need:
2 containers of strawberries
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1/2 cup of powdered sugar
1- 8oz of softened cream cheese
shaved chocolate- optional
You will also need pastry bag with a large star tip.
Wash strawberries and pat dry.
Cut stem and base of each strawberry to make a flat surface on the bottom. This will help them to stand up easily.
Stand strawberry upright and cut a criss-cross or x on the top of the strawberry, going 3/4 deep.
This allows for the strawberry to open up when you add the filling.
Making the cream cheese filling:
In a bowl, add the cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla and blend with a hand blender until well mixed. You can add shaved chocolate if you would like. :)
Spoon mixture into the pastry bag.
Stuffing the Strawberries:
Open the strawberry and push the star tip down into it.
Fill the strawberry with mixture.
Repeat process with each strawberry until all strawberries have been filled.
Arrange strawberries on a platter to serve. You can drizzle the platter with chocolate for a nice effect.
And then you can drizzle the strawberries for a yummier effect! :)
Chocolate, cheesecake and strawberries...you can't go wrong with this combination! Doesn't it just look divine?!
Best of luck with your baby shower!
