At first I didn't think the cream was sweet enough, but once filled, chilled...they were delicious! I took them to a reunion and came home with an empty container and many requests for the recipe. Will definately make these again! - Elisha, Mercer, PA

These were the first to go at a cocktail party that I hosted. When I do them again, I'm going to split the strawberry in half and pipe a star to filling on it instead of splitting the strawberry. Also I will top with a curly shaving of chocolate instead of grating because you can barely taste the chocolate on it.

I make a similar recipe, but I use 1 container of marshmallow cream and the cream cheese with vanilla. It is heavenly!

My only suggestion is not to make this too far in advance. The strawberries tend to get mushy overnight. Make only a few hours before serving

I followed this recipe verbatim. The filling was delicious -- loved the almond extract. However, I must be a real dummy/klutz in the kitchen. I had a very hard time "stuffing" the berries. My husband and I were both laughing because they kept splitting apart and I would put those on a different plate -- as duds. Instead of having about 25 pretty filled strawberries, I only had about 18 filled! We ended up dipping the split berries for our dessert. I'm going to take these to a little get together, but I'm just going to put cocktails picks in the strawberries and put the dip in a pretty glass bowl! -- It works for me :-)

I make 2 versions of this recipe. I will either stuff them with cheesecake (pre-made - just scoop!) or canoli dip which consists of ricotta cheese, confectionary sugar and vanilla then I dip the tops in melted chocolate....delicious!

Wonderful, simple recipe! I added a little more sugar than called for, but other than that, made as the recipe called for. This will be added to my go to luncheon recipes!

Loved these! I liked the almond flavoring but next time I am going to divide the sugar mixture and use vanilla flavoring as well as lemon flavoring as suggested. Thanks!
