🍓 Strawberry Shortcake Bites with Whipped Cream Cheese Filling✅❤
These no-bake strawberry shortcake bites are bursting with juicy berries, creamy filling, and sweet cookie crumbles — everything you love about shortcake in one heavenly bite!
đź“ť Ingredients:
1 lb fresh strawberries (large and firm)
4 oz cream cheese, softened
2 tbsp powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream (cold)
1/2 cup crushed shortbread cookies (or golden Oreos for extra sweetness)
Optional: drizzle of white chocolate or caramel
🍽️ Directions:
Prep the strawberries:
Wash and pat dry the strawberries. Remove the stems, and using a small knife or melon baller, carefully hollow out the centers.
Make the whipped cream cheese filling:
In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy.
Fill the strawberries:
Transfer the filling to a piping bag or zip-top bag with the corner snipped. Pipe the cream cheese filling into each hollowed strawberry.
Add shortcake crumble:
Dip or sprinkle the tops with crushed shortbread cookies for that buttery crunch. Press gently so it sticks to the filling.
Optional flair:
Drizzle with melted white chocolate or caramel for an extra decadent touch.
Serve chilled:
Place on a serving tray and chill for 15–20 minutes before serving. Best enjoyed the same day!
