Jorge Cruise's Strawberry Cheesecake Bites

Aired on: October 3, 2012

This dessert is part of an entire meal from The Belly Fat Cure Sugar & Carb Counter author Jorge Cruise, including Marinara Chicken Pasta with herbed Savory Squares.

Ingredients

5 large strawberries
1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
1 packet Truvia
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Graham cracker crumbs

Yields: 1

Preparation

Rinse strawberries and cut around the stem of the strawberry. Remove the top and clean out with a paring knife, if necessary (some may already be hollow inside). Prep all strawberries and set aside.

In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, Truvia, and vanilla until creamy. Add cream cheese mix to a piping bag or Ziploc® with the corner snipped off. Fill strawberries with cheesecake mixture. Once strawberries are filled, dip the top in graham cracker crumbs.

If not serving immediately, refrigerate until serving.
