Description

Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries are a delightful and easy no-bake dessert featuring fresh ripe strawberries filled with a creamy vanilla-infused cheesecake mixture and topped with a crunchy biscuit crumble. Perfect for parties, gatherings, or a light sweet treat, these mini desserts combine the freshness of fruit with the richness of cheesecake in bite-sized portions.


Ingredients

Scale

Strawberries

  • 20 large ripe strawberries

Cheesecake Filling

  • 90 ml (1/3 cup) double (heavy) cream
  • 180 g (2/3 cup) cream cheese
  • 60 g (1/4 cup) icing (powdered) sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Topping

  • 4 digestive biscuits (or 4 Graham crackers), crushed

Instructions

  1. Prepare Strawberries: Remove any leaves from the strawberries and use a melon baller to carefully scoop out the center of each strawberry, creating a hollow space. Then slice off a small portion from the bottom so that they can stand upright on a serving plate.
  2. Arrange Strawberries: Place the hollowed strawberries upright into petit four cases on a serving plate to keep them stable during filling.
  3. Make Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, whisk the double cream until it reaches soft peaks. Add the cream cheese, icing sugar, and vanilla extract to the whipped cream and whisk again until the mixture is smooth, light, and fluffy.
  4. Fill Strawberries: Transfer the cheesecake mixture into a piping bag fitted with a fluted tip. Pipe the filling generously into each hollowed strawberry, filling the center and swirling extra mixture on top to resemble mini cupcakes.
  5. Add Biscuit Topping: Sprinkle the crushed digestive biscuits or Graham crackers over the top of the filled strawberries before serving to add a delightful crunchy texture.

Notes

  • For best results, use fresh ripe strawberries that are large enough to hollow out.
  • The dessert is best served chilled but should be eaten within a few hours for optimal freshness.
  • Substitute digestive biscuits with any mildly sweet biscuit or crushed nuts for different flavors.
  • If you don’t have a piping bag, use a small spoon to fill the strawberries carefully.
  • This dessert is gluten-containing due to the biscuits; for a gluten-free option, use gluten-free biscuits.
