The Perfect 2-Bite Dessert

Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries are so delicious and so easy to make!

This recipe makes a very simple no-bake cheesecake but you can fill them with anything from Chocolate Cheesecake to Banana Split Stuffed Strawberries!

Buy the biggest strawberries you can find so you can pack in lots of cheesecake… but if you can’t find really big ones, these are easy to make with any size of berry!

How To Prepare Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries

Strawberries should be rinsed and patted dry. I use a tomato/strawberry huller to scoop out the middle of the berries but a small spoon will work too!

The cheesecake filling can be piped using a freezer bag or a decorating tool.

I used a tiny cookie cutter to cut out little hearts to garnish but if you don’t have one, even using a straw to cut out a circle (like I did on my chocolate cheesecake stuffed strawberries) creates an adorable garnish!

The bottom is dipped in white chocolate and graham crumbs.

Before you dip the bottoms in white chocolate, make sure you dab the bottoms of the strawberries dry on a paper towel.  This helps the chocolate stick and keeps moisture from getting into the chocolate!  If you have extra cheesecake filling left over, just pipe it onto a graham cracker or vanilla wafer cookie and store it in the fridge!

Note:  You do not have to add the white chocolate to the bottom of the strawberries… they will stand up just fine without it.

Ingredients

  • 2 ounces white chocolate
  • 1 tablespoon graham cracker crumbs

Cheesecake Filling

  • 6 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 4 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

Instructions 

  • 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 zippered bag. If using a zippered bag, snip off a corner.
  • Pipe the cream cheese mixture into each strawberry. Garnish with sprinkles or graham crumbs.

Notes

The size and amount of strawberries needed will vary based on the size of the strawberries. Leftovers can fill other fruit or be served as a dip.

  3. Finding enough pretty strawberries for Valentine’s Day was tricky, but it was worth the effort because these were fabulous. Made them for my hubby and two finicky boys and… they were gobbled right up. I skipped the graham crackers, and dipped them further in the white chocolate. Man oh man, I’m just waiting on another excuse to make these again ASAP.
