These babies are just plain amazing! I used half & half instead of heavy cream because it was on hand; the filling was still very creamy. Because I was serving these for a 4th of July themed party, I placed a blueberry on top of the chocolate on each strawberry. I lost that cute little peak of chocolate, but it was a great presentation for the occasion. The guests loved them. One tip to make working with the berries a bit easier is to snip the tip of the strawberry off. This makes it easy to stand the berries up on plate after you have filled them with the chocolate. You don't have to take off much of the berry for it to work. Thanks for posting - this is a gem of a recipe!

Made these around valentines for a party. I left the tops on, layed the strawberries on their side then used the small end of a mellon baller to scoop out a hole. Then I dipped the bottom of the strawberry in white chocolate, allowed it to harden. I went on to fill each one with filling & topping each with small sugar hearts. What wonderfully delicious yet simple recipe. It will be my go to recipe when I am asked to bring a fingerfood to a party.

Sorry. We were so excited to make these and then so disappointed. The chocolate was not chocolate-y enough......probably b/c it is diluted with cream and cream cheese? Nowhere near as chocolate-y as strawberries dipped in chocolate. And they didn't seem to hold up well either. I made them the morning of my son's birthday party and put them in the frig. They were still in good shape when the party started at 2, but by 4 they were looking awful and no one really wanted them. Easy to make though.
