Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries
Description
This recipe features large fresh strawberries with their tops sliced off and centers scooped out to hold a whipped cream cheese filling. The filling, blended with erythritol (or powdered sugar), Greek yogurt, and vanilla, provides a creamy and slightly tangy contrast to the juicy berries. Blueberries on top add a pop of color and mild sweetness.
The preparation involves beating the filling ingredients until smooth, piping it into each prepared strawberry, then chilling them in the refrigerator for two hours to set. The final product delivers a balance between fresh fruit and a soft, cheesecake-inspired filling ideal for a light dessert or appetizer.
These are convenient to prepare ahead for parties or snacks, keeping well chilled until served.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup cream cheese softened to room temperature (dairy-free works, too)
- 6 teaspoons erythritol or powdered sugar (but it will change the nutrition, powdered
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt or dairy-free yogurt, 2% fat
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 10 strawberry large
- 10 blueberries
Instructions
- Using an electric hand mixer, beat the cream cheese and powdered erythritol in a medium bowl. Add in the Greek yogurt and vanilla, and beat again until combined, scraping the sides as necessary.
- Slice the leafy tops off each strawberry, and use a small paring knife to cut a small hole in the top center of each strawberry. Then scoop out the insides with a melon baller.
- Fill a piping bag (or a plastic storage bag with the corner tip cut off) with the cheesecake mixture, and pipe the filling into each strawberry.
- Top each strawberry with a blueberry. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
