Almost-Forgot-it-was-Valentine’s-Day Strawberries

Ingredients:

20 Strawberries

1 Softened Cream Cheese Package (3 oz.)

2 Tablespoons Chopped Walnuts

1.5 Tablespoons Confectioner’s Sugar

 

Instructions:

  1. Dice up two strawberries and set them aside. Cut the stems off of the rest of your strawberries so that they can stand up without assistance.

  2. Take your small army of strawberries and cut x’s into the tips of them and cut most of the way down. If you cut completely through, you have gone too far. Each strawberry should have four wedges.

  3. Put the cream cheese into a bowl and beat it until it’s fluffy.

  4. Toss in your diced strawberries, chopped walnuts and powdered sugar and stir them into the fluffy cream cheese.

  5. Spoon them into your strawberries. The original recipe calls for a teaspoon, but considering how messy it will be, just do your best.

  6. Eat on the spot, or put your confectionary masterpieces into the refrigerator and let them get cold.

  7. Enjoy.  Happy (Belated) Valentine’s Day!
