Description
Fresh strawberries filled with a lightly sweetened chocolate no-bake cheesecake filling. This simple dessert delivers creamy texture, rich cocoa flavor, and a clean finish without baking.
Ingredients
Scale
- 24 medium fresh strawberries (about 1 1/2–2 pounds)
- 8 oz block cream cheese, room temperature
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Mini chocolate chips, optional for garnish
Instructions
- Rinse strawberries thoroughly and dry completely, removing all excess moisture.
- Remove the green stems so the strawberries can stand upright.
- Cut a deep X from the pointed end of each strawberry, being careful not to cut through.
- Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla until smooth and fluffy.
- Transfer filling to a piping bag fitted with a star tip.
- Gently open each strawberry and pipe the cheesecake filling inside.
- Top with mini chocolate chips if desired.
- Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
Notes
- Dry the strawberries completely to keep the filling thick and stable.
- If you do not have a piping bag, use a zip-top bag with the corner cut off.
- Serve chilled for the best texture and flavor.
