Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 12 large Strawberries (Ripe and fresh) Make sure the strawberries are ripe for optimal sweetness.
  • 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream A non-dairy option can be used for lactose-free.
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese Softened and at room temperature.
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream Greek yogurt can be substituted.
  • 1/4 cup White Granulated Sugar A low-carb sweetener is an optional substitute.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Opt for pure vanilla if possible.
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice Optional but recommended for brightness.
  • 1/2 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs Crushed nuts can be used to cater to gluten-free diets.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Rinse the strawberries, pat dry, and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.
  2. Soften the cream cheese at room temperature for 20-30 minutes.
Make the Filling
  1. In a cold bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream to soft peaks, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with sour cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until smooth.
  3. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well incorporated.
Prepare the Strawberries
  1. Cut a small cone out of the top of each strawberry to create a cavity.
  2. Transfer the filling into a piping bag or a small spoon and pipe or spoon the mixture into each strawberry.
  3. Press graham cracker crumbs onto the top of the filled strawberries.
Chill and Serve
  1. Refrigerate the strawberries for 15-30 minutes to allow the filling to firm up slightly.
  2. Arrange them on a platter and enjoy chilled.
