How to make stuffed strawberries

Stuffed strawberries are made the way that you want them. That is, there are many different things that you can use for the stuffing. But for now, find and prepare the largest strawberries that are available. Big strawberries allow you enough room for actually stuffing them. Cut the greenery off of each strawberry and then cut a small sliver off of the bottom. The piece removed from the bottom will allow it to stand on its own.

Take a sharp knife, cut a circle in the centre of the strawberry, and then remove the entire middle. You can also scoop out some of the inside with a small measuring spoon or melon baller to make room for the filling. Leave a piece of the strawberry at the bottom so that when you add the stuffing it won’t fall out.

Strawberry stuffing

Just about anything that goes well with strawberries can be used as the stuffing. One thing that is delicious as the strawberry stuffing is whip cream. Use the traditional type, chocolate whip cream, or another flavour. You can also create your own flavour by adding flavouring to whip cream. Rather than whip cream, ice cream is also yummy in a strawberry. You could fill the strawberries with yogurt, cottage cheese, cream cheese, and even gelatin.

Don’t limit the strawberry stuffing to things that are found in the dairy aisle at the grocery store. Melt chocolate chips and spoon them into the strawberries, or use white chocolate chips. Pudding is another option for creating decadent desserts by stuffing strawberries.
