Cheesecake Strawberry Bites

I saw this idea on pinterest, and thought it looked super simple and delicious, and I couldn't have been more right! Pretty sure they were gone in about 10.2 seconds! Too bad raspberries wouldn't hold up to this :/

1 lb strawberries, washed, dried, tops cut off and centers cut out.
8 oz cream cheese-softened (could use low/nonfat)
3 tbsp powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla
graham cracker crumbs


Wash strawberries and pat dry with a paper towel. Cut off tops and hollow out center and cut off the tip from the bottom to make them stand up. Mix in the mixer cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla until creamy. I wanted to try some chocolate ones but was out of cocoa powder, so, I added a few tsp of hot chocolate mix after I had filled half of them with plain cream cheese :)
Pipe cream cheese mixture into each strawberry and top with graham cracker crumbs, refrigerate if you are saving for later, but really, who does that?!

Seriously couldn't be more simple, and helps fulfill that cheesecake craving without all the calories :)









Enjoy!
