Ingredients
- 20 pieces Fresh strawberries
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 3 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Milk or dark chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil or shortening
- 1 cup Graham cracker crumbs (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Wash and pat dry the fresh strawberries, leaving the green tops intact.
Step 2
Carefully hull each strawberry by removing the stems and creating a cavity in the center using a small paring knife or strawberry huller.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy.
Step 4
Transfer the cream cheese mixture into a piping bag fitted with a small round tip or a resealable plastic bag with the corner snipped off.
Step 5
Pipe the cream cheese filling into the cavity of each strawberry until full, then set them aside on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 6
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil (or shortening). Microwave in 20-second increments, stirring after each, until smooth and melted.
Step 7
Dip the bottom half of each stuffed strawberry into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off before placing it back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 8
Optional: Sprinkle or roll the chocolate-dipped portion in graham cracker crumbs for added texture and flavor.
Step 9
Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature for about 10 minutes, or refrigerate for a quicker set time.
Step 10
Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
