  • ingredients:
  • 1 pound strawberries -
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips -
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese - room temperature
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar -
  • 1 graham cracker - crunched to crumbs

Preparation

Step 1

•wash each strawberry. cut the top off of each strawberry and using a knife, core out the middle of each strawberry. cut off a small piece of the bottom, (evenly) so they can sit up on the plate.

•in a double boiler or microwavable bowl, melt the chocolate until just melted. set aside to cool.

•in a small bowl, blend the cream cheese until smooth. add in the powdered sugar and mix until combined. if you want, you can add the powdered sugar in 1/4 cup increments, until you get to your desired sweetness. since it is not strawberry season and the berries are not that sweet, i sweetened the filling up good.

•fold in the chocolate.

•mixing until incorporated.

•add to a piping bag or plastic ziploc bag and pipe decoratively into the strawberries. sprinkle the graham crackers crumbs over top of each strawberry.
