Ingredients
  

1 pound large fresh strawberries

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 cup heavy whipping cream

1/2 cup crushed graham crackers

Chocolate sauce for drizzling (optional)

Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prep the Strawberries: Wash the strawberries thoroughly and gently pat them dry with a paper towel. Cut off the green tops and then hollow out the inside of each berry using a small paring knife or a strawberry huller, being careful not to break the skin. Set aside.

    Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer or whisk to beat the mixture until smooth and creamy.

      Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. This will lighten the filling and make it airy.

        Add Graham Cracker Crumbs: Carefully fold in the crushed graham crackers, reserving a small amount for garnish if desired. This will give the filling a delicious cheesecake-like taste and texture.

          Stuff the Strawberries: Using a piping bag or a small spoon, fill each hollowed strawberry with the cheesecake mixture, packing it in nicely.

            Freeze the Strawberries: Arrange the stuffed strawberries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place them in the freezer for about 1-2 hours until they are firm.

              Serve: Once frozen, drizzle with chocolate sauce if desired and sprinkle with the reserved graham cracker crumbs. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for an extra touch.

                Enjoy: These delicious frozen cheesecake stuffed strawberries can be enjoyed right away or stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a week.
