Recipe 1361 - Cream Cheese Strawberries
Recipe 1361 - Cream Cheese Strawberries
(by Shirley McNevich)
1 quart refrigerated fresh strawberries (wash carefully--DO NOT
remove stems; berries should be very cold)
1 - 3oz. Philadelphia cream cheese (softened)
1/4 cup white sugar
whole milk
1 bag Nestle's MINI semi-sweet chocolate chips
Line a cookie sheet with wax paper--set aside. Carefully wash
strawberries with COLD water, leave the stems on, and pat them dry
with a paper towel. In a mixer add cream cheese and white sugar--
beat on high until very smooth (make sure you scrape the sides of the
mixing bowl). Once smooth, start adding one teaspoon of milk at a
time and beating the cream cheese mixture on high. Continue adding
milk until the mixture is thin enough to use for dipping. Do a test
strawberry--you should be able to dip it and have it stick well to the
berry. In a separate bowl pour in some of the mini chocolate chips.
Hold the stem of each strawberry, dip the berry in the cream cheese
mixture, then quickly roll the berry in the mini chocolate chips and
place the completed berry sideways on the wax paper. If you don't like
a lot of chocolate chips, just dip the bottom end of the berry in the
chocolate chips rather than rolling it. Work quickly--once all berries
are finished, refrigerate the whole tray. Keep refrigerated a few hours
before serving so they are nice and cold. Not recommended to freeze
them.
