Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries Recipe!
Here's what you need:
About 20 strawberries... this was a little over one carton for me.
8 oz pkg softened cream cheese
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 sleeve of graham crackers
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions:
First you will want to wash the strawberries and cut off the tops.
Now core them!
The easiest way to core the strawberries is to hold the entire berry in your hand (wrap your fingers around it) and literally just core out the center. Get as deep as you can without breaking through the bottom. On a scale of 1-10 with 1 being the easiest, I would give this a 4. Not too bad!
Now to make the filling.... I used my hand mixer because it 's just a few ingredients. Beat the cream cheese. Add powdered sugar and vanilla. Beat until smooth.
Now to fill the strawberries!!! You can use a ziplock bag and snip off the end if you do not have a piping bag.
Crush 3 graham crackers. You can crush them in a ziplock bag to avoid a mess!
Now fill the strawberries, leaving just a bit coming out the top... then sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs.
If you want... melt about 1/2 cup of chocolate chips. Place in zip lock. Snip tip off and
DRIZZLE........

It's a very cute recipe! Kids would surely love it! Just make sure they don't eat too much of it because eating too much sweets could make their teeth yellowish. As you know, teeth whitening in Los Angeles is not that cheap so prevention is always better than cure.
