Ingredients
Scale
Strawberries
- 24 large fresh strawberries, washed and hulled
Cheesecake Filling
- 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 1/2 cup (60 g) powdered sugar, adjust to taste
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Coating and Topping
- 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, melted (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Strawberries: Wash and hull the strawberries using a paring knife or melon baller to hollow out the centers, creating space to hold the cheesecake filling.
- Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing thoroughly until creamy and well combined.
- Fill the Strawberries: Transfer the cheesecake mixture into a piping bag fitted with a star tip, or alternatively a zip-top bag with a corner cut off. Pipe the filling into each hollowed strawberry, letting a small amount overflow on top for a decorative effect.
- Add the Graham Cracker Crumbs: Gently dip the filled end of each strawberry into the graham cracker crumbs, coating the exposed cheesecake filling evenly.
- Optional Chocolate Drizzle: Melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave by heating in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until completely smooth. Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the filled strawberries or dip the tips for extra indulgence and decoration.
- Chill and Serve: Arrange the strawberry cheesecake bites on a serving platter and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set. Serve chilled for the best flavor and creamy texture.
Notes
- Use fresh, firm strawberries for the best structure and taste.
- Adjust the amount of powdered sugar to your preferred sweetness level.
- The white chocolate drizzle is optional but adds a lovely visual appeal and sweetness.
- For easier filling, chill the cream cheese mixture slightly before piping.
- Serve these bites within 1-2 days for optimal freshness.
