Mini Santa Strawberry Treats Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 20 fresh strawberries
  • 3 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • Small chocolate chips or candy eyes
  • Red food coloring (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the strawberries: Cut the top third off each strawberry and keep the tops for later. Stand the berry bases on a serving platter.
  2. Make the cream cheese filling: In a bowl, beat together the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. If desired, add a few drops of red food coloring to tint the cream cheese.
  3. Assemble the Santas: Pipe or spoon 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese filling onto the flat berry tops. Place the reserved strawberry tops on top to make the hats.
  4. Add the details: Use a small piping tip to pipe a small amount of cream cheese filling onto the tip of each strawberry hat (pompom) and onto the “chest” (button).
  5. Add the eyes: Use tweezers to place 2 small chocolate chips or candy eyes onto each cream cheese “face.”
  6. Chill and serve: Refrigerate the strawberries until ready to serve.

A Festive Finale

These Mini Santa Strawberry Treats are not just a dessert; they’re a work of art. They’re perfect for holiday parties, potlucks, or simply as a sweet treat to enjoy with family and friends.
