Can I just say that I have died and gone to heaven. Cheesecake stuffed strawberries….how have I not made these before?! I’m serious. They are amazing! I ate four of them yesterday. I could have eaten more but I restrained myself. It was not easy, I assure you.
Making up the filling was a breeze too. It’s cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla extract. The addition of almond extract to the filling would be tasty too. To finish, I dipped the stuffed strawberries in graham cracker crumbs. It gave the strawberries the total cheesecake taste. A drizzle of chocolate would be amazing too. In fact, I think I’m going to try that next time…yum!
Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries:
1 pound large strawberries
8oz. block cream cheese – soft
3 – 4 tablespoons powdered sugar (depends on how sweet you want the filling)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or use almond, lemon, etc. )
Graham cracker crumbs
Instructions:
Rinse strawberries and cut around the top of the strawberry. Remove the top and clean out inside with a paring knife if necessary. I found most of the strawberries already had a nice hollow center so that step was not necessary. If you want to stand your strawberries upright (like in the picture) slice a bit off the bottom. One strawberries are prepped set aside.
Combine cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla with a mixer or by hand. Add cream cheese mix to piping bag and fill strawberries. Once strawberries are filled dip the top in graham cracker crumbs. Devour and fall in love.
You could also drizzle or dip strawberries in chocolate if desired.
Enjoy!!!
I stored my stuffed strawberries in the fridge although I find they taste best the day,or second after, they are made.

WHOA! i am in love already! i love to dip strawberries in sour cream (even fat free is fabulous), then brown sugar. but this might beat that. thanks for sharing!
I made these last summer but cut them in half. I love how you’ve left them whole. They look fabulous!
You’re a genius! I had to call my husband over, and we both simultaneously went ooooohhh and ahhhhhhhhh!
These are ridiculous. In the best way possible. I need these now! Thanks for posting
I couldn’t have restrained myself.
Will be making these immediately!
So simple, yet so brilliant! These are definitely in my future
uhh WOW. these are…wow. i’m speechless!
That is so cute and a perfect low-calorie summer replacement for cheesecake! Just Brillliant, woman! This would be great to bring to a picnic, but I think I’m going to make them just for us. Mwahahahahaha!
Oo, how come I haven’t heard of or thought of this before? It looks and sounds incredible!
Brilliant idea! I just finished off 3 pints of huge fresh strawberries, this would have been perfect with them!
These just look so amazing! I can’t get over it….I need to try them ASAP!
fun snack genius
OMG these look amazing, I can just imagine how good they would taste biting into it! Mmmmmm……
de – lux with a capital D and a capital LUX – Im a gonna make these for sure!
OhMyGoodness, I can’t WAIT to make these!
Coolest idea – strawberries aren’t in season here in New Zealand but come December I know what I’ll be doing. I think even someone as clumsy as me could manage this
This is a BRILLIANT idea! Just book marked. Totally bringing this to the next party we go to!
Ummm yeah. These are definitely the kind of thing that I’d have to distance myself from immediately after making them. Meaning that they look utterly addictive!
All I can say here is “whoah” this is just so clever
*kisses* HH
These look amazing! Wow, what a great idea for the cheesecake lover!
These are so adorable! They look absolutely delightful!
wow, light and delicious, what a perfect summer dessert
i’ll have to remember this one…
OMG! These are AMAZING! Wish I had a dozen of these to go with the champagne I’m having now [its my bday, don't judge!] I am so making them this weekend
I love cheesecake-stuffed strawberries, but I have yet to make them! Yours look really incredible and I love how you dipped them in graham cracker crumbs!
These looks amazing! Great idea!
What a fun idea!
What a decadent way to eat strawberries! They are so pretty and would make a great alternative when serving fresh berries. I am thinking with champagne might be a nice touch as well….yum…..
What a beautiful idea – it’s like a strawberry cheesecake – only with a much healthier strawberry to cheesecake ratio and in bite size
. Will definitely make it one day! Thanks so much for sharing 
Oh my – now those are some little strawberries. What a fun idea!
I didn’t think you could improve strawberries, but this may be the ticket.
Mimi
What a fabulous idea! I’d love these!
Oh man I’ve had my eye on these over at pinterest too. Now you have me thinking about them again.
OMG! These are awesome. I have never seen them before. Great idea! I am having a graduation party for my daughter and these would be perfect. Thank you:)
What a terrific presentation! I was planning to bring a 7-layer dip to the end of year preschool party next week but I think I’m switching to these.
Oh, what a treat that is! I have such gorgeous strawberries right now too, and absolutely must make this, thanks!
What a great idea!!! An inside out cheesecake. Yum!
These look absolutely amazing. I haven’t made them even though I’ve seen them in tons of blogs…

awesome idea!! Love it!
I love strawberries and cream cheese. I have a trick to de-steming strawberries.
Using a firm straw (I save Jack in the Box ones), place the straw at the bottom of the berry and push it up thru the middle. It will catch the stem and pop it out. then to fill them cut out a bit more of the top.
This is genius! I will definitely try this on the weekend.
How did I miss this? Worst/ Friend/ Ever
You could totally do these low carb. Substitute the sugar with splenda and mix up crushed almonds with butter and splenda (which is what I use for my crusts) and use this in place of the graham crackers. Can’t wait to try it
Awesome! I have a friend who eats low carb and loves your ideas.
I have done something similar to this before but drizzling chocolate over the strawberries. Delicious!!
Break out the Chardonnay, Ice Wine, or Port?
I just made these tonight…let’s just say…they are gone!
this is complete, complete, COMPLETE .. genius.
Found these via stumbleupon. Just made them and was amazed at how simple and delicious they are! Great summer treat.
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed them

So excited to try these!! Would it be fine to prepare the strawberries and the filling the night before, without filling the strawberries, then fill the next afternoon before serving?
I think that would be fine. As long as your strawberries are nice and fresh I don’t see why they wouldn’t last overnight. I would also recommend not putting on the graham topping until you are a ready to serve. If it sits for too long it can get soggy. I hope you enjoy the berries! They are a favorite in our house
I’m going to add a blueberry on top to make it our red, white and blue treat tomorrow. SUPER yum idea. Thanks for sharing
That’s such a cute idea! Hope you and your family enjoy the treats

This was so great, I had to make it! Even though I already had lemon cookies in my house.
But I had a lot of cream cheese left over, so, I made smores out of nutella, graham crackers, cream cheese and blueberries. 
What d’ya think?
Oh good grief, why in the world did I have to stumble upon this at 11pm? Dang it, now I’m hungry and want to go dig my strawberries out of the freezer.
Just made these to night, they amazing! I made a lime cheese cake filling too with fresh lime juice and a little bit of grated rind.. Testing them out on the people at work tomorrow! Yay! Thanks for thd idea!
I’m going to go workout immediately! I need to prepare for these…
This looks fantastic!! The idea of dipping them into melted chocolate and then rolling then into graham cracker crumbs would be the supreme addition.
WOW, im going to the store in a couple of minutes just to get the ingredients im going to make them i cant wait lol
There are no words………..You have touched a place in my heart that no man has gone before ………My 2 favorite things in a bite sized munchie!!!…:)

I definitely need to make these, but only for myself
I love strawberry cheesecake and so this is a simple and little treat for when you deserve to spoil yourself! Thanks for sharing 
Hi!
First of all, this recipe made me so happy, thank you for posting it! My friend and I made some the other day. We also decided that, as a spread, it makes pretty much everything taste amazing. I am definitely going to be making/eating a lot of this in the future
Why..why did i just eat all my strawberries!? T.T I gotta wait til mah paycheck now!
These turn out fantastic! I just made them and in addition to doing some with graham cracker crumbs, I also did some with dark chocolate chips and I think I liked those better. I think using strawberry cream cheese would also be a nice sweet twist.
My In-laws came over yesterday and I made this for dessert, along side brownies topped with ice cream, and everyone cleaned their plates! Thanks for the post!!
–Dayna Kerr
I am TOTALLY making these! I am doing a whole dessert tray for a friend’s bday party (50+ people). These will be a perfect addition. I wanted to make mini cheesecakes, but I’m afraid they will melt. These will be a perfect addition to the desserts I already have lined up. THANKS!!!
Oh… wow!! These are so creative! Love it!
if i had strawberries i would so b making these right this instint!!! hav 2 go 2 store will only b buying strawberries………………………………………………..cant waist time buying other things!!!:)
I was very excited about these but was disappointed in these. I used the exact recipe and had a lot of cream cheese left over (and I did use larger strawberries with some smaller ones too). They did not taste that great; would have tasted better if u could get more cream chz filling in it but all u can taste is strawberry.

I am definitely making these and dipping them in same dark chocolate for my friend when she has her new baby… She loves Strawberry Cheesecake, but I want to make her little ‘bites’ she can grab from the fridge/freezer with infant in-hand!
Just tried these and they were yummy!! I drizzled them with a bit of white chocolate (on the berry itself) and piped the cream cheese so it raised to a pretty point on the top. I think if you use big enough berries that are ripe enough, you don’t have to hollow them out and you can fit lots of filling in them. Definitely a great shot of sweet and richness without feeling too guilty about it
super clever. Tweeting this now
Have you thought about dipping them in dark chocolate? I may have to make these and try making chocolate covered strawberries out of them! Thank you for a fantastic idea!
Pingback: Cheesecake Strawberries with Chocolate Accents | Savoring Today
these are fantastic! i put a semi-sweet chocolate chip at the bottom then filled it with the frosting so there was a chocolate surprise at the bottom! also on a different strawberry, i put sliced almonds on the top… DELICIOUS!!!
Those look so good! Creative! I better not let my husband see this page or he will demand them!!
Last summer I did a similar strawberry, but filled it with Marscapone cheese mixed with Vanilla sugar. They were a hit. Thanks to stumble upon, this reminded me of that day! and I was just thinking of what cool refreshing dessert I could make for an upcoming party ……Thank you!
Love Strawberries, I will definitely try this for my family.
Wow, these look amazing. Thanks for sharing them.
Wow, these look amazing and delicious. Thanks for sharing them.
tried these. delicious. the second time i made them i dipped them half way in chocolate xD
I made these!! So delicious I ate a couple for breakfast- it was the perfect sweetness for me with 3 rather heaping tablespoons of powdered sugar! Thank you!
this is so cool! perfect for parties and so easy to do too!
thanks for sharing
I literally just made these and they are absolutely ridiculous! They are super fast and super easy to make. Tip: you can totally use small strawberries if you cant find large ones, they become like cute cheesecake bites…and sprinkle powdered sugar on top as well=double the goodness!
Oh wow, that would be the best birthday cake I can think of, I absolutely love your idea
let me tell you, i am HORRIBLE in the kitchen, but i made thee and they were a HUGE hit and so easy! love love love!
when i make these i add toasted pecan pieces to cream cheese. if you want chocolate you could dip in chocolate almond bark. be sure to keep refrigerated.
I love this!! It’d make me feel less guilty!! [more strawberries, less cheesecake]…
Yummy strawberry delights.
I love how you dusted the top of the filling with the crumbs. I think I need some of these now.

thanks for your time

I tried the original recipe on here and it was delicious, but then my culinary curiosity took over and I used strawberry cream cheese instead and then added some fresh mashed raspberries. I left the vanilla out though, and they were BEYOND DELICIOUS. Amazing idea though
Strawberries + cheesecake = AWESOME. I can’t wait to try this and live happily ever after.
Wow! What a clever idea, I made a pretzel dessert last night with a filling of cool whip, cream cheese, and powdered sugar. That would be incredible in strawberrys! I might go for it!
Only Americans would take a healthy natural fruit and stuff it with fat….
Feel free to eat them plain. I do not require anyone to stuff them.
Hey now, it’s patriotic to stuff healthy food with yummy fat! In fact, if you top it with a blueberry you have the perfect 4th of July treat.

Pingback: Weekly Love | Working Out & Eating In
Brilliant idea! I’m drooling.
I bet adding a little rosewater to the cream cheese would be great as well. Rosewater pairs very well with strawberries, and makes a great tasting cream cheese frosting.
These care considered health food if they’re made of fruit right
These luscious cheesecake stuffed strawberries make for a gorgeous holiday treat. It’s a nice way to have something sweet after the main meal without breaking the calorie bank – providing we don’t eat too many – which might be difficult. Thank you for sharing and the pix are so inviting – can’t wait to bring these to the family holiday meal!
These were awesome, soo delicious and easy to make!

These are great i’ve eaten about ten already. I used almond flakes instead of the biscuit crumbs and ended up using rosewater essence instead vanilla. Still gorgeous.
How creative! Yum!
I made cheesecake stuffed strawberries once before with a chocolate drizzle and they were fabulous. Never thought of including graham cracker crumbs though. Maybe sprinkling some over the chocolate drizzle for added texture? Thanks for the great idea!

Oh … I was stumbling and when I saw the url for this page, before the page loaded, my eyes got as big as saucers. Then, when I saw the pictures, I had trouble remembering to breathe.

Making these with “no bake-cheesecake” mix (needed quick!) and stuffing them as we speak…YUMMO
i want to try these sooo bad!!!!, i was wondering those instead of the brick can u use the spread?
I made these for Valentines Day, and they were good but it mainly tasted like Strawberries stuffed with cream cheese, rather than a cheesecake taste? I added the vanilla and actually about 7ish Tablespoons of powdered sugar, and it still tasted like cream cheese. Any thoughts on what I could have done differently? They definitely were good! I just wish they were more cheesecakey
Hi Jackie,
I’m not sure what to tell you. If you are a fan of Jello cheesecake I’m willing to bet you could make the filling and then stuff it into the cheesecake. Or possible add a packet of Jello cheesecake pudding (just the dry mix) to the cream cheese and see how that tastes. I can’t for sure tell you if it would be good but it doesn’t sound half bad. I’m sorry they were not exactly what you had hoped but I’m glad you enjoyed them anyway
