New Favorite Dessert!

Hey Everyone!!! I thought I would share a GREAT dessert recipe with all of you!!  If you are a cheesecake fan like I am you will definitely want to try this recipe!  They are Strawberry Cheesecake Bites and I came across a picture of these one day and thought I would try to make them on my own.......without the actual recipe. If you are a easy kind of girl like me............wait a minute that didn't sound right.......I mean if you like making things that are easy like I do (much better...haha!) and don't take a ton of time...........well this is the dessert to make!!!

Strawberry Cheesecake Bites:

You'll need:

• Fresh Strawberries
• 4 oz cream cheese
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 cup cool whip
• vanilla extract
• pre-made pie crust

You wash all of your strawberries

Cut all of the stems off and hollow them out with a pairing knife or a strawberry corer thingy gadget (which I don't own):

Which looks something like this:

Wanna see what the middle parts of strawberries look like:

EWW.......Gross right??

OK sorry I couldn't resist.

Next you gather all of these ingredients to make the cheesecake filling:

Place the cream cheese in a bowl and microwave for about 15-20 seconds. When still warm add the sugar and mix until well dissolved. Next add the sour cream and cool whip and mix.  For some extra flavor add a drop of vanilla extract and mix until smooth and creamy.........just like this:

Place the filling into a plastic sandwich baggy and snip off the corner........just like this:

 

Pipe filling into hollowed strawberries:

Take your store bought pie crust:

 

 

and do the unthinkable..................break it apart:

until all crumbled:

 

 Next take your filled strawberry and add the crumbs......just like this:

 

 voila your cheesecake bites are ready to serve!!
