CHEESECAKE STUFFED STRAWBERRIES
I always have mixed emotions on Mother’s Day. It’s a beautiful day to celebrate and recognize all that moms do.
I’m so grateful to be a mother but always feel like there’s room for improvement on my part. My own mother is amazing and I can only hope to be half the mom she is.
HOLLOW OUT THE STRAWBERRIES
To hollow out the strawberries use a small pairing knife. This makes a hole for the filling to go into.
CHEESECAKE FILLING
The cheesecake filling is very simple. The ingredients are cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
HOW TO MAKE CHEESECAKE STUFFED STRAWBERRIES
-
Rinse strawberries and cut around the top of the strawberry. Remove the top and clean out with a paring knife, if necessary.
-
In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until creamy. Add cream cheese mix to a piping bag or Ziploc with the corner snipped off. Fill the strawberries with cheesecake mixture.
-
Once strawberries are filled, sprinkle or dip the tops with graham cracker crumbs.

Recipe Notes
slightly adapted from The Sweet's Life
good idea, but not that good in reality. it just tastes like strawberries and cream cheese. the cheesecake taste is lacking. it’s sickening. also, it’s a lot harder than it seems to make it look nice and not pathetic.
overall,
3/10 for taste. i kind of like cream cheese so i can stand the fact that it only tastes like cream cheese.
I’m sure the 5th star will be added as soon as I make this simple delicious looking stuff strawberries..
Umm…. Yes please! My cheesecake obsession can finally be cured/satisfied/grown!
I made these for my wife on Mothers Day but added a twist. I took the stuffed strawberries and dipped the bottoms in semi sweet dark chocolate. Definitely a hit…
Ooh that sounds delightful!
yummy dish i am loving it……
Thanks!
I just had an idea. Chocolate cheesecake stuffed, chocolate coated strawberries
My first thought was to dip the strawberries in chocolate sprinkles rather than buy a whole box of graham crackers.
Guess I’ll have to try my hand at these, though I think they’ll happen to fall into a little melted chocolate before being served. Always seems to be some chocolate causing a happy mishap around my place…
Me too! How are we so clumsy? 🙂
