Description
These Cheesecake Deviled Strawberries are a sweet and creamy twist on a classic, combining the freshness of ripe strawberries with a luscious cheesecake filling for a delightful bite-sized treat.
Ingredients
1 pint fresh strawberries
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons graham cracker crumbs
1 tablespoon honey (optional)
Instructions
- Start by washing and drying the strawberries. Slice off the tops and carefully hollow out the center of each strawberry using a small spoon or melon baller.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth.
- Gradually add in the heavy cream and continue mixing until the filling becomes light and fluffy.
- Fill each hollowed-out strawberry with the cheesecake mixture using a spoon or piping bag.
- Sprinkle the graham cracker crumbs on top of each strawberry for that classic cheesecake crust flavor.
- If you want a touch more sweetness, drizzle a bit of honey over each strawberry.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes to let the flavors set before serving.
Notes
These are best served chilled, so refrigerate them before serving.
You can double or triple the recipe for larger batches.
Try variations like chocolate drizzle, flavored cream cheese, or adding crushed nuts for a twist.
They last about 2-3 days in the fridge, but best eaten fresh.
Frozen strawberries may release too much water, affecting the texture.
