Ingredients
- 20–25 large ripe strawberries with sturdy stems
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar, sifted
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, chilled
- 1 cup fresh mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
- 1 cup graham crackers, crushed or broken into pieces
- Mini chocolate chips or shavings for garnish
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Wash and dry strawberries thoroughly. Hull each strawberry by removing the stem and coring about half an inch deep to create a cavity for filling. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing well.
- In a separate chilled bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy.
- Transfer cheesecake filling to a piping bag or use a small spoon to fill each hulled strawberry, mounding slightly above the rim.
- Arrange stuffed strawberries upright on a serving board.
- Surround strawberries with fresh mixed berries, scatter graham cracker pieces, sprinkle mini chocolate chips or shavings, and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
- Chill the entire board in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
If filling is too thick, add a splash of milk or cream to loosen before stuffing. Use firm, ripe strawberries to avoid sogginess. Let cream cheese soften at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before mixing. Whip cream to stiff peaks but avoid overwhipping. Stuff strawberries just enough to avoid spilling. Can substitute coconut cream and dairy-free cream cheese for a vegan version. Use almond flour crumbs instead of graham crackers for gluten-free option.
