Cream Cheese-Stuffed Strawberries Tutorial

Kate (author of The Guy Next Door) here again with another recipe from Diamond Rings are Deadly Things. These are super easy and very tasty.

Here's what you'll need to get started for the Chapter 20 Tutorial:

1 pound of large strawberries
1 package of cream cheese
¼ to ½ cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Then set aside.

Place a graham cracker in a bowl.

Use a juice glass to crush the cracker. Set the crumbs aside.

Wash the strawberries. If you have a peeler/corer, it is really handy for the next step. If not, use a paring knife.

Insert the peeler corer near on the edge of the white part of the strawberry under the green leaves.

Twist around and pull out the core. Fill a pastry bag with the sweetened cream cheese and pipe into the strawberries. If you don't have a pastry bag, a baby spoon works really well.

Sprinkle with crushed graham cracker crumbs and serve. Enjoy!

Chapter 20: Cream Cheese-Stuffed Strawberries
Rinse one pound of large strawberries. With a paring knife, remove
the tops and cores. In a mixing bowl, beat one package of
cream cheese, ¼ to ½ cup powdered sugar, and one teaspoon vanilla
extract until creamy. Fill a frosting bag with the cream cheese mixture
and pipe it into the strawberries. Crush enough graham crackers to
fill a ½-cup measure, and dip the strawberry tops in the crumbs, or
sprinkle them over the tops. If not serving immediately, refrigerate the
strawberries until serving.
