Whether you pick your own, get them at the farmers’ market, or swing by the grocery store, strawberries can be found year-round and are equally welcomed in the summer as they are for a holiday dessert.

Course Dessert

Ingredients

1 lb strawberries
1 8 oz block of cream cheese
1/2 cup of powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Rinse strawberries and cut tops off.
Cut strawberries in half (if they don't lay flat you may need to take a sliver off the side to provide a flat base)
Mix cream cheese, confectioners sugar, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl with a hand mixer. (SB TIP: If you do this by hand, it's very hard for the powdered sugar to mix completely and it will likely leave lumps.)
Pipe the cream cheese mixture onto the strawberries. (SB TIP: Place the mixture into a plastic sandwich bag and cut a small tip off a corner and use that to pipe the mixture onto the strawberries.)
Sprinkle strawberries with graham crackers, shaved chocolate, blueberries, or even a tiny piece of mint.
SB TIP: Get creative and cut the strawberries in different ways, add different toppings, or even use a different extract flavor.
