These Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries are like bite-sized cheesecakes with a juicy punch of strawberry in every bite. Unlike a baked cheesecake, these can be served up the same day!
Give the 18 (1 pint) strawberries a base to sit on by slicing the bottom pointy end off and giving it a level surface to stand on.
Cut the green top out at a slant. Careful not to cut too deep and make a hole in the bottom of the strawberry.
Cheesecake
In a mixing bowl, add in the 8 ounces cream cheese, 1/3 cup powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream. Beat with a hand mixer on medium until creamy.
Add the cheesecake mixture to a disposable piping bag or a sandwich bag. Cut a small hole in the piping bag or the corner of the sandwich bag.
Fill the top of each strawberry with the cheesecake filling and swirl the filling around the top of the strawberry.
Graham Cracker Crumbs
In a small bowl, stir together the 1/3 cup graham cracker crumbs, 1 teaspoon granulated sugar, and melted 1/2 tablespoon salted butter.
Dip the tops of the strawberries in the graham cracker crumbs.
Store the strawberries in the refrigerator or serve immediately.
Notes
