Strawberries Are Finally In SEASON!!

Welcome to Cooking with Jordan! Thanks for viewing my blog today!


These cheesecake stuffed strawberries couldn’t be easier!  I’ve seen so many versions out there.  Some of which make you cut off the top and bottom of the strawberry and scoop out the centers.  Why would you give yourself more work to do and waste yummy fruit like that?!   Not me!  Nuh-uh!


Try these easy red, white, and blue Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries for a healthier patriotic dessert!
Ingredients                                                                                             
  • 1/2 cup Blueberries, fresh
  • 24 Strawberries (1 1/2 to 2 lbs, large fresh
  • 1/2 cup Powdered sugar 
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract 
  • 1 (8oz) package Cream cheese
Simply cut off the stem so you have a flat end, cut an “X” in the tip, and pipe the filling inside.  It opens up as you fill it.  Don’t go wasting that fruit!


To make these patriotic, instead of sprinkling the tops with crushed graham crackers, we’re topping these with a fresh, plump blueberry.  Voila!  Red, white, and blue cheesecake stuffed strawberries!

These are a great healthier alternative for your 4th of July dessert and are guaranteed to get gobbled up!


The naturally sweet fruit paired with the cool, creamy, and lightly sweet cheesecake filling is the bomb!  I dare you to only eat one of these, it’s impossible, quite frankly!  You will need at least 2, or 3 …


Depending on how ripe your berries are, you can prep these ahead of time too.  My strawberries were still quite firm, so they lasted a couple days in the refrigerator without leaking juices all over the place and dissolving the cheesecake centers.

You should really make these though… they are pretty darn tasty!


NOM! NOM! NOM! HAPPY EATING!!
