Try sour cream and brown sugar...it's to die for!! You don't stuff the berries though. Just wash them and put a bowl of sour cream and one of brown sugar to dip the berries into. My husband and I had them at a wonderful restaurant in Carson City, Nevada. It was their ';trademark';. At first I thought ';YUCK!';. But after I dipped the first giant strawberry into the sour cream and then covered the sour cream with brown sugar I was hooked. It is absolutely delightful! Annie
Mix strawberry cream cheese and that fluff stuff together, it makes a good dip for strawberries so I suppose it could make a good stuffing.
Chocolate Stuffed Strawberries:





15 min 15 min prep


20 strawberries





20 large fresh ripe strawberries


3 ounces cream cheese, softened


1 teaspoon milk


1 tablespoon Creme de Cacao


2 tablespoons finely shaved dark chocolate (or melted)


1 1/2 tablespoons icing sugar





1. Remove the stems/leaves from the strawberries and if required, cut a thin slice from the base so that the strawberry sits perfectly on a plate, pointy end up.


2. Cut the strawberries almost in half from the pointy tip to the base (don't cut all the way through).


3. Cut again in the opposite direction so that the strawberry has four even size wedges joined at the base.


4. Beat the cream cheese, milk, creme de cacao and icing sugar at a medium speed with an electric mixer until fluffy.


5. Stir in the chocolate.


6. Spoon (or pipe) the mixture into the strawberries, dividing evenly.


7. Serve immediately.

Slice off the stem end of each strawberry. Use a knife to scoop out a little bit of each berry to make a hole in the center. Set aside.


Combine cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in a small bowl.


Fill each strawberry with the mixture, mounding a bit of the mixture on the top of the strawberry.
