Serves: 11 person(s)
Yield: 11 x 4 bite-sized servings

Preparation Time: 45 mins
Cooking Time: 0 mins
Extra Time: 3 hrs (for refrigeration)

Ingredients:

1 (8 oz.) package fat free cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup powdered sugar
2 tsp lemon juice
44 medium strawberries, whole
1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs

Directions:

In a small mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, sugar, and lemon juice until smooth and creamy, set aside.

Using a paring knife, hollow out the top of each strawberry to a depth of approximately 3/4 an inch. Gently fill each with cream cheese mixture using a pastry bag just slightly above the tops. Place them on a cookie sheet(s) as you do this.

Once all of the strawberries are filled, dip each top into the graham cracker crumbs and place back onto the cookie sheet(s).

Place the cookie sheet(s) into the refrigerator and leave them for a few hours or over night to completely chill.
