Ingredients
  

  • 24 large strawberries
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon fine salt
  • ⅓ cup heavy cream cold (or ¾ cup whipped topping)
  • ½ cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter optional
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest optional
  • Optional toppings
  • mini chocolate chips
  • crushed cookies
  • shaved chocolate
  • drizzle of melted chocolate

Instructions
 

  • Rinse strawberries under cool water, then pat dry very well. Let them air-dry for 10 minutes.
  • Slice a thin piece off the bottom of each strawberry so they sit flat.
  • Cut off strawberry tops. Hull the center with a huller or paring knife to create a cavity for filling.
  • In a medium bowl, beat softened cream cheese until completely smooth.
  • Add powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt (and lemon zest, if using). Beat until creamy.
  • Add cold heavy cream and beat for 1-2 minutes until fluffy and thick enough to pipe. If using whipped topping, fold it in gently instead.
  • Stir graham cracker crumbs with melted butter (if using) until combined.
  • Transfer filling to a piping bag fitted with a star tip (or a zip-top bag with the corner snipped).
  • Pipe filling into each strawberry, adding a small swirl on top.
  • Sprinkle with graham crumbs and any extra toppings.
  • Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

Dry strawberries thoroughly so the filling holds well and the berries stay firm.
If the filling is too soft, chill it for 15 minutes, then pipe.
For the crunchiest topping, sprinkle crumbs close to serving time.
