18–24 large fresh strawberries
8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup powdered sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon heavy cream (if needed for piping consistency)
Gel food coloring (pastel shades, optional)
Optional garnish: crushed graham crackers, white chocolate drizzle, or sprinkles
Prep the Strawberries: Wash and dry strawberries thoroughly. Slice off the tops and carefully hollow out the centers using a small knife or melon baller. Pat insides dry.
Make the Filling: Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and fluffy. Add heavy cream if needed to loosen for piping.
Color (Optional): Divide filling into small bowls and tint with gel food coloring for pastel shades.
Pipe: Transfer filling into piping bags and pipe into each hollowed strawberry, slightly overfilling for a decorative swirl.
Chill: Refrigerate for at least 30–60 minutes to firm up before serving.
Garnish: Sprinkle with crushed graham crackers or drizzle with white chocolate if desired.
