Strawberry bombs are a fun and delicious treat! They usually consist of fresh strawberries filled with a sweet mixture, often cream cheese or chocolate. Here’s a simple recipe for strawberry bombs:
Strawberry Bombs Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh strawberries
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup chocolate chips (optional)
- Crushed nuts or sprinkles (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Prepare the Strawberries:
- Wash and dry the strawberries. Cut off the green tops and carefully hollow out the center using a small knife or a strawberry corer, being careful not to break the walls.
- Make the Filling:
- In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined. If you want to include chocolate chips, fold them into the mixture.
- Fill the Strawberries:
- Using a piping bag or a small spoon, fill each hollowed strawberry with the cream cheese mixture.
- Chill (Optional):
- For a refreshing treat, refrigerate the filled strawberries for about 30 minutes.
- Serve:
- Optionally, dip the tops of the filled strawberries in crushed nuts or sprinkles for added texture. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Tips
- For a chocolate version, you can melt chocolate chips and dip the filled strawberries into the melted chocolate instead.
- You can also experiment with different fillings, such as whipped cream or fruit-flavored cream cheese.
Enjoy your delicious strawberry bombs!
