Ingredients:
12 med-large strawberries
6 oz of room-temperature cream cheese
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 tbsp confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup toasted sliced almonds
Whip cream cheese on medium speed until slightly fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add vanilla and sugar and whip until combined.
Trim tops and bottoms of strawberries to level. Use a small melon baller to scoop out tops.
Fill a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2″ star tip with cream mixture; pipe into berries until it brims over tops.
Arrange almond slices over filling.
