Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries

When I saw a picture of these on Pinterest, I wanted to make them right away.  Seriously, fresh strawberries filled with cheesecake?  Why had I never thought of or seen this?  Unfortunately, I didn't have the ingredients and it took me months to remember to get them.  Recently I was invited to a girl's night and needed to bring a treat.  I immediately thought of these.  So, off to the store I went to get my strawberries and cream cheese, and let me tell you, they did not disappoint!

The Ingredients:

1 lb. strawberries

8 oz. cream cheese, softened

4-6 Tbsp. powdered sugar (just sweeten it until it is to your liking)

1 tsp. vanilla extract

graham cracker crumbs

Directions:

Rinse strawberries and cut out the leaves.  There is naturally a little hole in there, but you can make it a little bigger to make more room for filling.

In a bowl, beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until creamy and smooth.

If you don't have a piping bag, take a baggie, put it over a cup with the edges over the sides, and put all the filling inside.

Close the bag and cut a small hole in the corner.  Squeeze some filling into each strawberry.

Dip the top in graham cracker crumbs.

Cover and keep refrigerated until ready to eat.

Enjoy!
