Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by rinsing 12 fresh strawberries under cool water. Pat them dry, then use a paring knife to carefully cut off the stems and hollow out the insides, creating a cup for the cheesecake filling.
- In a mixing bowl, combine 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, ½ cup of powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Use an electric mixer to beat the ingredients together on medium speed until the mixture is smooth and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
- Transfer the creamy cheesecake filling into a piping bag fitted with a round tip or simply use a plastic bag with a corner snipped off. Hold each strawberry upright and pipe the filling into the hollowed centers, filling them generously.
- Once all the strawberries are filled, place them on a tray and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 3–4 hours to allow the filling to firm up.
- Just before serving, top each Cheesecake Strawberry with a Bunny Graham for a fun festive flair. Optionally, sprinkle colorful Easter candy sprinkles over the top to add a pop of color.
