Fast and festive, these stuffed strawberries are the perfect ending to all your summer soirees. Use jumbo strawberries for a beautiful presentation.
Ingredients
      1 pound(s) strawberries, large-size (about 18 strawberries)  
4 oz low fat cream cheese, at room temperature  
1/2 cup(s) powdered sugar  
1/2 tsp vanilla extract  
Instructions
Wash and dry strawberries (leave green caps on).

Using a paring knife, cut a wide v-shape out of the pointed end of each strawberry (like an open mouth); reserve cut out pieces of strawberries. Place cut strawberries on a serving plate, green cap-side down so they will be easy to fill.

Using an electric mixer, thoroughly combine cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in a medium bowl.

Chop reserved leftover bits of strawberries into tiny pieces and gently stir into cream cheese mixture with a spoon.

Fill each cut strawberry with a small amount of cream cheese mixture using a spatula or knife. Arrange filled strawberries on a serving plate, green cap-side down. Yields 1 strawberry per serving.
Notes
Prepare this recipe the same day you plan to serve it or the strawberries will weep. Refrigerate if not serving immediately.
