Deviled strawberries are a no-bake dessert trending on TikTok and perfect for a summer picnic, afternoon snack, or family gathering.
It’s strawberry season and what better way to enjoy their sweetness with something a little extra, yet very easy to make, Deviled Strawberries. With just 5 simple ingredients plus sprinkles, everyone will be able to enjoy this delicious summer treat in less than 15 minutes!
Who inspired us to make these trending Deviled Strawberries?
TikTok user @cookiterica inspired us to make one of her versions of deviled strawberries, although there are several and all look very delicious. Some of the other options include deviled strawberries with chocolate cream cheese filling, buttercream filling, and a colored cream cheese frosting filling.
Are there substitutions for Deviled Strawberries?
There are a few variations and depending what you’re in the mood for, you can replace the cream cheese filling we used with buttercream, whipped topping or even chocolate. Instead of sprinkles, you could add graham cracker crumbs, mini chocolate chips, caramel or chocolate drizzle.
We made our own cream cheese frosting but you could use store bought cream cheese frosting as well. Any color of sprinkles combination will work, making them festive for any holiday also.
Deviled Strawberries – Ingredients:
Strawberries
Sprinkles
CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
4 oz room temperature Cream Cheese
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) Unsalted Butter, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups Powdered Sugar, sifted
How do you make Deviled Strawberries?
Although the bigger strawberries will make the best deviled strawberries, a medium or large will work well enough.
Wash and dry strawberries, slice off the top and then slice again down the center.
Carefully scoop out some of the center of each half so you have room to fill it with cream cheese frosting.
Mix softened cream cheese in a medium bowl and beat until smooth in a stand or handheld mixer.
Add butter and vanilla and beat until smooth.
Sift powdered sugar into a medium bowl and gradually add to cream cheese frosting. Again, beat until smooth.
Pipe the frosting with a star tip into the holes of the strawberries and top with sprinkles.
Serve and enjoy! They’ll go quick so make sure you get the first taste before they disappear
If not serving right away, place in refrigerator.
TIPS:
Slicing down the center of the thick side (not the long way) of the strawberries will allow for more of a boat shape to fill with frosting.
Before slicing, you could core out the middle of the strawberry and then slice.
