Description
Red, White, and Blue Cheesecake Strawberries are festive, bite-sized treats made by filling juicy strawberries with a creamy cheesecake mixture and topping them with blueberries. Perfect for patriotic holidays like the 4th of July, Memorial Day, or any summer gathering.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound fresh strawberries (about 20 large berries)
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 20 fresh blueberries
- Optional: graham cracker crumbs or white chocolate drizzle for garnish
Instructions
- Rinse strawberries and pat them dry. Cut off the green tops and use a paring knife or small melon baller to hollow out the center of each berry.
- In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy.
- Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling into the hollowed-out strawberries.
- Top each filled strawberry with a fresh blueberry.
- Optional: Sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs or drizzle with melted white chocolate for extra flavor and decoration.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the filling to firm up.
Notes
- These are best made the day you plan to serve them, but they can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
- Use a piping bag with a star tip for a more decorative presentation.
- You can substitute mascarpone for cream cheese for a slightly lighter flavor.
