Deviled Strawberries
Deviled strawberries are a delightful twist on traditional appetizers, featuring fresh strawberries hollowed and filled with a creamy mixture of mascarpone cheese, whipped cream, and a hint of vanilla. These sweet, bite-sized treats are perfect for parties or special occasions!
Equipment
- Electric mixer
- Piping bag or zip-top bag
Ingredients
- Grated chocolate or toasted coconut, for garnish
- ½ cup cream cheese, at room temperature
- ½ cup marshmallow creme
- 1 pint strawberries
Instructions
- Start by using a paring knife to slice off the tops of each strawberry.
- Cut them in half lengthwise and carefully remove the core.
- Gently pat the insides dry using a paper towel and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer on medium speed to blend the cream cheese and marshmallow crème until the mixture is fluffy, which should take about one minute.
- Spoon the mixture into a piping bag or a zip-top bag, then cut a small corner to pipe the filling into the strawberry halves.
- Finish by garnishing with grated chocolate and/or toasted coconut.
- Chill in the refrigerator until it's time to serve.
Notes
- Feel free to substitute the marshmallow crème with whipped cream for a lighter texture.
