Red Velvet Cheesecake Strawberries
Red Velvet Cheesecake Strawberries are fresh, juicy strawberries filled with creamy no-bake cheesecake, dipped in smooth white chocolate, and coated in soft red velvet cake crumbs for a rich, indulgent bite-sized dessert!
Servings: 30 strawberries
Ingredients
- 3 lbs strawberries
- 4 oz softened cream cheese 1/2 a block
- 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups red velvet cake crumbs
- 1 (12 oz) bag white chocolate chips roughly 2 cups
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
Instructions
- Wash and dry your strawberries, then scoop a hole into one side of each strawberry using a melon baller. Take a paper towel and gently pat the inside of the berries as dry as possible.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract, then mix until smooth and creamy.
- Transfer the filling into a piping bag or Ziploc bag, cut off one end, and fill the hole of each strawberry. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat as you go.
- In a small mixing bowl, crumble up your red velvet cake (I recommend just buying a slice of sheet cake from the store and removing the icing), and set aside.
- In a microwave safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips with vegetable oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in-between, until melted and smooth.
- Dip each cheesecake filled strawberry into the melted white chocolate, then roll directly into the bowl of red velvet cake crumbs.
- Return to your prepared baking sheet, and transfer to the fridge to set the chocolate coating before enjoying!
