CHEESECAKE STUFFED STRAWBERRIES INGREDIENTS

Strawberries
Cream cheese
Powdered sugar: Feel free to switch this out for granulated white sugar.
Vanilla wafer crumbs or crushed graham cracker crumbs

SUBSTITUTIONS AND ADDITIONS

Change The Cream Cheese: You can try this with special types of cream cheese filling, like whipped cream cheese of the following flavors: mixed berry, brown sugar, and cinnamon, original, strawberry, blueberry, and lemon zest, or any other sweet flavors you can find.
Cookie Crumbs: Instead of Vanilla Wafer Crumbs, you can have it topped with crushed graham crackers, Oreos, Biscoff cookies, ginger snaps, or the crumbs of any other sweet cracker or cookie.
Fancy-Up Your Filling: Add a fancier flair to your filling by drizzling the tops with chocolate, strawberry, or caramel syrup, mixing in mini chocolate chips or even adding lemon or orange zest to the filling.
Tasty Toppings: Feel free to sprinkle on some shaved chocolate, coarsely chopped nuts, candied nuts, or colorful sprinkles to the top.
Custom Colors: Top with a blueberry for a red, white, and blue 4th of July patriotic punch, or use holiday sprinkles or colorful sugar crystals for any holiday or special occasion.

HOW TO MAKE CHEESECAKE STUFFED STRAWBERRIES

Wash and cut the stems off the tops of the strawberries.
Core out the center of the strawberries and set aside.
Beat together the cream cheese and powdered sugar until fully combined and creamy, about 3-5 minutes.
Spoon the cream cheese mixture into a piping bag or Ziploc bag.
Pipe the cream cheese mixture into the cavity of the strawberries until filled and there is some cream cheese mixture poking out the top.
Sprinkle the tops of the strawberries with cookie crumbs or graham cracker crumbs, serve, and enjoy!

TIPS FOR THE BEST CHEESECAKE STUFFED STRAWBERRIES

The amount of sweetener used depends on how sweet and ripe your strawberries are. If you have naturally sweeter strawberries, you may not need as much sweeter, and the opposite is true if you have less sweet strawberries. You can also add a dash of vanilla extract into the cheesecake mixture to make it a little bit richer.
If you add mini chocolate chips to the cheesecake mixture, make sure that the piping bag hole is big enough for the chocolate chips to go through.

HOW TO STORE CHEESECAKE STUFFED STRAWBERRIES
