Everyone loves cheesecake... Strawberry Cheesecake Bites


Strawberry Cheesecake Bites

 

 

Everyone loves cheesecake especially strawberry cheesecake. These Strawberry  Cheesecake bites are the perfect, fast, and easy snack. A lot easier than making an actual cheesecake, and pretty enough to take to a party. Just beware you might want to eat all of them by yourself ;)
 

 

 

Strawberry Cheesecake Bites

 

Ingredients:

1 Pound Large Strawberries hulled
 
8 oz. (one package) Cream cheese (you can use 1/3 less fat)
 
3-4 Tablespoons Powdered sugar (4 Tablespoons for a sweeter filling)
 
1 Teaspoonful Vanilla extract (not imitation vanilla)
 
1/4 Cup Graham cracker crumbs
 
In a mixing bowl fitted with whisk or paddle attachment, beat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla and 2 Tablespoonfuls of graham crackers, until creamy. Add the sugar one tablespoon at a time until you reach desired sweetness. Put cream cheese in a piping bag or Ziploc back with the corner cut off. Cut a cross on the tip of the strawberries,but don't cut all the way through, its easier if you stand them up hulled side down so they stand up on their own then cut. Fill the strawberries with the cream cheese mixture using the piping bag. Sprinkle with more graham cracker crumbs. You can also add colored sugar, sprinkles, or drizzled chocolate on top. Refrigerate until serving and enjoy!! :)
