How to Make Stuffed Strawberries

Toast Your Coconut

If you have toasted coconut, this is a true no bake recipe. If you don’t, there are 5 minutes of oven time involved.

Simply lay out the shredded coconut on a baking sheet and bake it at 350 for 5 minutes. Allow to cool before topping your cheesecake filled strawberries.

Prepare Your Strawberries

Wash your strawberries. I like to combine cold water with some vinegar, swish my berries around for about a minute, then rinse my berries with cold water.

Once cleaned, remove the stems and hollow out the strawberries. You want to leave enough flesh so that your walls aren’t too flimsy, but you also want enough room for your filling.

Make the Deviled Strawberries Filling

Beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and coconut extract until smooth and creamy.

Transfer your filling into a piping bag. Don’t have one? Use a zip top bag and snip off the bottom corner for a homemade version.

Fill Your Strawberries

Pipe the frosting into the hollowed out strawberries and top with the toasted coconut. Serve the deviled strawberries chilled. Enjoy!

Cheesecake Filled Strawberries Frequently Asked Questions

What toppings can I use besides coconut?

If you don’t love (or are allergic to) coconut, you can easily serve these cheesecake strawberries plain! They’re also delicious with a drizzle of melted chocolate or topped with lemon zest — get creative with your flavor combinations. You can also replace the coconut extract with vanilla or lemon extract.

Can You Use Frozen Strawberries for This Recipe?

Stuffed strawberries work best with fresh berries. Frozen berries would need to thawed first, and then they would be too mushy.
