FAQs
Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes! You can prepare these strawberry bites up to 4 hours in advance. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Add the sprinkles right before serving for the best texture.
Can I use a different type of yogurt?
Absolutely! You can substitute plain Greek yogurt with vanilla-flavored yogurt for extra sweetness or use a dairy-free yogurt if needed.
What if I don’t have a piping bag?
No problem! Use a small plastic bag and snip off one corner to pipe the filling, or simply spoon it into the strawberries for a more rustic look.
How can I customize these?
Add a little flair with toppings like crushed graham crackers, mini chocolate chips, or shredded coconut. For a festive touch, match the sprinkles to your event’s theme!
Ingredient Notes
Strawberries: Look for large, firm strawberries for easier filling. Wash and pat them dry before preparing.
Cream Cheese: Use full-fat cream cheese for a rich and creamy filling, but you can opt for low-fat if preferred. Ensure it's softened for easier mixing.
Greek Yogurt: Plain Greek yogurt adds a tangy balance to the sweetness. Adjust the amount of powdered sugar if you’re using sweetened yogurt.
Vanilla Extract: Pure vanilla extract enhances the cheesecake flavor. For a twist, try almond or lemon extract.
Powdered Sugar: Adjust to taste, depending on how sweet your strawberries and yogurt are.
Sprinkles: Optional but highly recommended for a fun, festive finish. Choose red or pink for a classic look or switch it up with other colors!
