Stuffed Strawberries
Quick and easy stuffed strawberry recipe made with fresh, ripe, juicy strawberries, stuffed with yogurt-cream cheese, brown sugar, and fudge sauce, all topped with dark chocolate shavings.
Equipment
- 1 pastry bag with small open star tip and matching couplers.
Ingredients
Stuffed Strawberries
- 16 fresh strawberries
- 1/4 cup chocolate or fudge sauce (recipe below)
- 2 tbsp. light brown sugar
- 2 Oz. plain nonfat Greek yogurt
- 4 oz. cream cheese, softened to room temp
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate shavings
Dark Chocolate Sauce
- 8 oz. dark chocolate (60% cacao)
- 2 tbsp. light agave syrup
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup +/- water
Instructions
- Blend yogurt and cream cheese until well integrated and smooth. Move this mixture into the pastry bag that is fitted with the tip and coupler.
- Clean berries, leaving leaves intact, and place them on a cutting board, with the leaf side down. Make a cross slice into the berries from the pointed (upward) side to 1/4 inch from the bottom of each berry.
- Using your fingers, open the strawberry enough to drizzle a 1/2 teaspoon of chocolate sauce in the bottom. Then sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon brown sugar over that.
- Now, using the pastry bag, pipe the yogurt-cream cheese into the opening of the strawberry! See video in the blog above!
- Sprinkle dark chocolate shavings over the top. Dive in!🤗
Dark Chocolate Sauce
- Place all ingredients in a small saucepan and heat over low heat until melted, whisking often. Bring just to a boil and stir well. Remove from heat. The sauce thickens up as it sits, so you may want to add more water, a teeny bit at a time to reach a good drizzling consistency, before serving.Â
