Mascarpone Stuffed Strawberries
Report
Mascarpone Stuffed Strawberries feature fresh strawberries hollowed out and filled with a smooth mixture of mascarpone cheese, lemon juice, vanilla, and powdered sugar. The filled berries are then drizzled with melted semi-sweet chocolate and sprinkled with chopped nuts for texture and rich flavor contrasts.
Description
This recipe begins by mixing mascarpone cheese with lemon juice, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar to create a creamy, mildly sweet filling. The strawberries are cored and hulled, then filled with this mixture using a piping bag or a cut corner of a baggie for precision.
The strawberries are enhanced with a drizzle of melted semi-sweet chocolate, prepared using a double boiler method to melt gently without burning. Chopped nuts are sprinkled atop the chocolate drizzle, adding a crunchy contrast to the soft fruit and creamy filling. The dessert is served chilled, best prepared on the same day to maintain strawberry freshness and texture.

Ingredients
- 1 (8 ounce) container mascarpone cheese Belgioioso brand, softened
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- 3 Tablespoons powdered sugar
- 24 strawberries , cored and hulled
- 1 ounce semi-sweet chocolate

Instructions

- Using a double boiler, melt the chocolate. If you don't have a double boiler, you can set a glass bowl inside of a pot where the water line is just underneath the surface of the bowl. Heat the water until the chocolate melts.
- You can use a fork to drizzle the chocolate or for more control scoop the melted chocolate into a resealable plastic bag and snip of the corner to drizzle the chocolate on.
- Sprinkle with chopped nuts.
- Store strawberries in fridge until ready to eat. Best if made the same day.
