Easy Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries

Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries

yield: 20 SERVINGS

prep time: 20 MINUTES

total time: 20 MINUTES

Ingredients

  • 8 oz. cream cheese block, softened
  • 1 pound large strawberries
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 graham crackers, crumbled
  • blueberries (optional for the top)

Directions

1

Wash and dry strawberries. Cut off the tops and use a small pairing knife to cut out the middle of each strawberry carefully. If you'd like the strawberries to stand on their own, cut a small piece off of the bottom of the strawberry to create a flat base.

2

Using a hand mixer, whip together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and softened cream cheese.

3

Fill a pastry bag or ziptop bag and snip the corner end off for piping. You could alternatively use this highly-rated Wilton Dessert Decorator (it's my favorite!). Pipe the cream cheese filling into each strawberry, overfilling slightly.

4

Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs and add a blueberry on top if desired. Serve cold and enjoy!

I love this Wilton kitchen tool for piping!

I prefer to use my Wilton Dessert Decorator instead of pastry bags. I’ve had this device for years and use it all the time for both decorating desserts and stuffing savory appetizers!

The onlineponents onlinee apart easily for convenient washing, and the decorating tips are easy to swap out. Plus, they never seem to get misplaced, as they are a lot bigger than the small metal tips onlinemonly used for pastry bags.

Best of all, this tool is so much easier (and faster) to fill than floppy pastry bags. And unlike disposable pastry bags, it can be refilled and reused over and over again. I highly reonlinemend it!
