The Players for this TikTok Deviled Strawberries Recipe

Ingredients:

• Strawberries – Fresh strawberries are needed for this viral tiktok recipe.
• Cream Cheese – You’ll need half a block of room temperature cream cheese for our creamy fillings.
• Sugar – Plain sugar is needed to make our cheesecake filling. 
• Heavy Cream – Some heavy whipping cream is used for our cream cheese mixture.
• Vanilla Extract –  Just 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract is all that is needed to provide a sweet and warm flavor to our filling.
• Chocolate Chips – To make a chocolate cheesecake filling, you’ll need some chocolate chips.  You can use semi-sweet, milk chocolate, or dark chocolate!
• Coconut Oil – ​If you plan on making the chocolate filling, you’ll need 1/2 tsp coconut oil to melt with the chocolate. You can also use butter if you don’t have coconut oil.
• Graham Crackers – Take a graham cracker and pulse them in a food processor or crush them in a sandwich bag to create graham cracker crumbs. 

Tools:

• Hand Mixer – To make our cheesecake filling, you’ll need an electric hand mixer or some elbow grease!

How to make Deviled Strawberries Tiktok Recipe

Wash and dry two dozen fresh strawberries and cut the top of the strawberries off.  Use larger strawberries if you can so you can place more filling inside.

Fun fact:  Did you know you can eat the green leaves of strawberries? The green leaves, often referred to as the “hull,” are edible, but they are not typically eaten due to their slightly bitter taste.  But they are full of Vitamin C, Calcium, and Iron! 

Cut the strawberries in half length-wise and scoop out the middle of the strawberry using a spoon or small teaspoon. Alternatively, you can leave the strawberries as is! It makes the process faster and much quicker if you choose this method.

In a small bowl, pour the heavy cream and mix well with either a hand mixer or an electric mixer on high speed.  You’ll want to beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This should take 2 minutes.

Add in your softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix well.

To make a Chocolate Cheesecake Filling

If making a chocolate filling, add half of the cream cheese mixture to a separate bowl.

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt your choice of chocolate chips and coconut oil in 20-second intervals on full power in the microwave until melted.  Pour the melted chocolate into the bowl and mix well.

*If making chocolate cheesecake filling, you’ll want to chill the mixture for at least 20 minutes. Adding the melted chocolate will make the mixture slightly runny, so you’ll want to thicken it back up by placing it in the fridge.

Fill and top your strawberries

In two separate sandwich bags or piping bags, fill one with plain cheesecake mixture and the other with chocolate cheesecake mixture.  Alternatively, you can also take a small spoon and spoon the mixture into the strawberries if you prefer.

Snip a small corner of your sandwich bag, or take your piping bag, and begin to fill your strawberries with cream cheese mixture.  

Take a graham cracker rectangle and break into to crumbs. Sprinkle your graham cracker crumbs over the top of your vanilla cheesecake and/or chocolate cheesecake strawberries.  

Place your deviled strawberries on a cookie sheet or serving plate and place them in the refrigerator to allow the cheesecake mixture to firm up for at least 30 minutes.  Enjoy!
