Description

Ingredients

• 1 Pint of Strawberries (or more… there will be cheesecake filling leftover but the size of the strawberries will determine how many you can fill)
• 2 oz White chocolate
• Graham crumbs
• 6 oz Cream Cheese, softened
• 4 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon of lemon juice
• rind from 1 lemon
• 3 tablespoons heavy cream

Directions

• Wash strawberries and dry well.
• Cut the tops off the strawberries and hollow out the center using a small spoon or a strawberry huller (this is the type I use, works for tomatoes and strawberries)
• Place the chocolate in a small dish and melt on 50% power for about 15 seconds.. continue in 10 second increments until the chocolate is melted
• Slice a thin piece of the bottom of each strawberry so it can stand up and pat it dry with a paper towel. Dip the bottom of each strawberry into chocolate and then graham crumbs and place on a parchment lined pan.
• Meanwhile, beat cream cheese, heavy cream, sugar, lemon juice and lemon rind if using until smooth and creamy.
• Place the cream cheese mixture in a decorator or into a Ziploc bag. If using a Ziploc bag, snip off a corner.
• Pipe the cream cheese mixture into each strawberry. Garnish with sprinkles or graham crumbs.
