Yields: 10 bites
Ingredients
- 1 (8 ounce) package of reduced fat cream cheese
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- zest from one lime
- 1 pound strawberries
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, lime juice and lime zest. Place the mixture in the fridge to chill.
- Carefully cut the tips and the stems from the strawberries. Use a small spoon or metal measuring spoon and hollow out the inside of the berries. Be careful not to cut into the edges.
- Spoon or pipe the filling into the berries.
- Keep cool.
- Tips: I used a metal teaspoon to hollow out the large berries and a metal ½ teaspoon to hollow out the small berries.
- You can place the prepared berries in the freezer for a few minutes to help the filling set so if they tip over it doesn't ruin the appearance.
