Strawberry Cheesecake Strawberry Bites

Enjoy creamy, bite-sized Strawberry Cheesecake Strawberry Bites that combine fresh, ripe strawberries with smooth, tangy cheesecake filling. Perfect as an easy snack or elegant party treat, these little delights feature a luscious cream cheese mixture nestled inside hollowed strawberries, optionally topped with graham cracker crumbs or fresh mint for extra flavor and texture.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 12-16 bites

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • Fresh Strawberries – ripe, bright red, medium-sized
  • Cream Cheese – softened, about 8 oz (225g)
  • Powdered Sugar – 1/4 cup (30g)
  • Vanilla Extract – 1 teaspoon

Optional Ingredients

  • Graham Cracker Crumbs – 2 tablespoons, for topping
  • Fresh Mint Leaves – for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Strawberries: Wash the strawberries thoroughly. Slice off the green tops to create a flat base so the berries stand upright. Using a melon baller or small spoon, hollow out a small cavity inside each strawberry, being careful to leave the sides intact to hold the filling.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a medium bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until completely smooth and creamy, ensuring a luscious, well-combined filling.
  3. Fill the Strawberries: Spoon or pipe the cream cheese mixture into each hollowed strawberry, filling them generously without overflow. If using, gently press a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs on top for added texture or leave plain for a clean finish.
  4. Chill Before Serving: Arrange the filled strawberries on a serving tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Chilling firms up the filling and enhances the flavors for a refreshing and delicious bite.

Notes

  • Choose firm, medium-sized strawberries to better hold the filling and prevent leaks.
  • Use room temperature cream cheese for a smooth, easy-to-pipe filling without lumps.
  • Use a piping bag or a zip-top bag with a corner snipped for neat, mess-free filling application.
  • Serve chilled for the best texture and flavor experience.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • These bites do not freeze well due to the moisture content in strawberries.
