How we made Chocolate Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries!
- Wash and dry the strawberries. Then hull the berries and cut a small sliver from the bottom so they stand upright.
- Mix the cream cheese, sugar and cocoa in a mixer on high speed. Add vanilla and softened butter and mix.
- Add melted chocolate, mix.
- Add in the whipped cream and and mix until combined.
- Put the mixture into a pastry bag with a large tip or put into a plastic bag and cut the corner off.
- Pipe the cheesecake filling into the strawberries.
- Sprinkle with shaved chocolate, sprinkles or make some chocolate hearts with some melted chocolate.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve. The strawberries are best served the same day they are filled.
Other Strawberry options:
After you have hulled and slivered the bottom of the strawberries, you can dip the bottoms in melted chocolate and them dip them in Oreo
If you don't want chocolate cheesecake and want to opt for traditional, just omit the chocolate cocoa and melted chocolate. Add a couple of teaspoons of lemon juice and sprinkle them with graham cracker crumbs. Can also dip the bottoms with white, milk or dark chocolate and dip in more graham cracker crumbs. For white chocolate cheesecake, substitute white chocolate for the melted chocolate.

Honestly, I do not need to stuff strawberries to enjoy them - just mix everything in a bowl and voila! 🙂 But as a dessert for a very special occasion, that's definitely the winner! Also, that's such a clever idea to use a cheesecake filling instead of just whipped cream. Delicious!
