These 4-Ingredient Cheesecake Strawberries Are Addicting 🍓
The Creative Yummy Inspiration
After my pickled pink deviled eggs got popular, I decided to try a similar concept with strawberries. Every year, I made a strawberry cake for my mother-in-law for her birthday and Mother’s Day, which falls around the same time every year. Strawberries and cheesecake are my husbands’ favorite too. I saw some similar deviled strawberries on Pinterest, but the recipes never were quite “right” to me, so I made up my own version, which taste so delicious!

My Easy Recipe :)
Total time: about 30 minutes
Servings: approximately 20
Servings: approximately 20
🛒 Ingredients
2 (16 oz) cartons of fresh strawberries
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
8 oz softened cream cheese (I used Green Valley Lactose Free as it’s delicious and smooth)
1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
Optional: 2 graham crackers, crumbled (for topping)
Optional: Piping Bag/Cake Decorating Set, this is my icing bag stand
👩🍳 How to Make Deviled Cheesecake Strawberry Bites
Prepping the strawberries
1. Prep the Strawberries
Wash and dry the strawberries. Slice them in half lengthwise. Slice a tiny bit off the backs off the strawberries to make them lay flat on the platter.
Making the cheesecake topping
2. Make the Cheesecake Filling
In a bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, lemon juice and sifted powdered sugar until smooth, fluffy, and creamy, about 2 minutes or less. Using a hand or stand mixer on a low setting works well to get it really smooth, making piping it easier. I add my powdered sugar in ½ cup increments to help ensure it doesn’t all “pouf” out of the bowl.

3. Top the Strawberries
Transfer the cheesecake mixture into a piping bag (or zip-top bag with the corner snipped). Pipe the filling neatly onto each strawberry half.
Adding the optional topping
5. Add Optional Crunch
Sprinkle crushed graham crackers on top for that classic cheesecake crust flavor and a little texture. I used a ziplock bag and a meat mallet to crush them.

6. Serve & Enjoy
Serve immediately, or chill briefly before serving for an extra refreshing bite! They transfer well in a casserole dish or a deviled egg tray.
