🍓 Cheesecake Deviled Strawberries
A bite-sized dessert that combines juicy strawberries with creamy cheesecake filling — perfect for parties, brunch, or a sweet snack.
🛒 Ingredients (Serves 12–16)
- 12 large fresh strawberries, washed and hulled
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2–3 tbsp powdered sugar (adjust to taste)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Optional toppings: crushed graham crackers, mini chocolate chips, lemon zest
👩🍳 Instructions
- Prep strawberries
- Cut a small slice off the bottom so they sit flat.
- Hull the strawberries (remove the stem and seeds core) to create a small cavity for filling.
- Make the cheesecake filling
- In a bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.
- Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract; mix until creamy.
- Fill the strawberries
- Spoon or pipe the cream cheese mixture into each strawberry cavity.
- Use a piping bag or zip-top bag with the tip cut off for a neat presentation.
- Add toppings (optional)
- Sprinkle crushed graham crackers, chocolate chips, or lemon zest on top.
- Chill and serve
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the filling set.
💡 Tips & Variations
- Flavored twist: Add a teaspoon of strawberry or raspberry jam to the cream cheese filling for extra fruitiness.
- Mini cheesecake bite: Use blueberries or raspberries instead of strawberries.
- Chocolate drizzle: Melt a bit of chocolate and drizzle over the top before chilling.
- Make ahead: These can be prepared a few hours in advance and stored in the fridge.
