Deviled Strawberries are a delightful and elegant appetizer or dessert that combine juicy strawberries with a creamy, sweet filling made from cream cheese, sour cream, and whipped cream. These bite-sized treats are topped with graham cracker crumbs for a charming crunch and perfect for parties or gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale

Strawberries

  • 18–24 large strawberries

Filling

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 2/3 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice (optional)

Topping

  • 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs

Instructions

  1. Prepare Strawberries: Wash the strawberries thoroughly and remove the stems. Using a small spoon or melon baller, carefully hollow out the center of each strawberry to create space for the filling.
  2. Make Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sour cream, white granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and optional lemon juice until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
  3. Fill Strawberries: Using a piping bag or small spoon, carefully fill each hollowed-out strawberry with the creamy filling, ensuring they are generously filled but not overflowing.
  4. Add Topping: Sprinkle the graham cracker crumbs evenly over the filled strawberries to add a slight crunch and enhance the presentation.
  5. Chill: Refrigerate the deviled strawberries for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set and flavors to meld.

Notes

  • Use fresh, firm strawberries for the best results; softer strawberries may collapse when hollowed.
  • For a sweeter or less tangy filling, adjust the sugar and lemon juice to taste.
  • Graham cracker crumbs add texture but can be substituted with crushed nuts or cookie crumbs if preferred.
  • Serve chilled for optimal taste and texture.
  • This recipe is best consumed within 24 hours as strawberries can release moisture over time.
