Ingredients:
2 lbs strawberries
8 ounces cream cheese
1 (8 ounce) packages chocolate, candy melts ( I use “Dolci frutta” which is found in the produce dept)
1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
1/4 cup chocolate syrup ( I use hershey’s)
Directions:
wash and thoroughly dry the strawberries.
using a small melon baller (or a paring knife) scoop out the top of the strawberry removing stem and some of the center.
melt chocolate in microwave at medium heat. use small intervals like 30 – 45 seconds. mix between each interval, do not overheat.
Dip strawberries in chocolate and place on wax paper to dry.
While they are drying mix the cream cheese, sugar and syrup using an electric mixer.
you can either scoop the filling into the strawberries with the melon baller or pipe it in using a pastry bag for a nicer presentation.
