Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Additional Time 20 minutes
Total Time 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
  • ½ cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 12 large fresh strawberries, hulled
  • 2 tablespoons graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate chips (Optional)
  • 1 teaspoon canola oil (Optional)

Instructions

    1. Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
    2. Beat together the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth.
    3. Spoon the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.
    4. With a sharp paring knife, cut a cone shape out of the top of each strawberry to leave a small hollow.
    5. Pipe about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese filling into each strawberry, making sure that the filling overflows a bit out of the top of the strawberry.
    6. Place the graham cracker crumbs into a shallow bowl. Dip the filled side of the strawberry into the graham cracker crumbs, coating the exposed filling with crumbs.
    7. Melt the chocolate and canola oil in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until warm and smooth, 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave).
