Yummy cheesecake deviled strawberries recipe idea

 


Cheesecake Deviled Strawberries


Ingredients:

18-24 large strawberries

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1 (8-ounce) package of cream cheese, softened

1/3 cup sour cream

2/3 cup white granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (optional)

Cut off the stems of the strawberries and slice them in half. Cut a small sliver off the back of each strawberry half so they sit upright.

Use a small melon baller to carefully hollow out the middle of each strawberry half, creating a small indent for the filling.

Whip the Cream:

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes.

Prepare the Cheesecake Filling:

In a separate bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, sour cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice (if using) with an electric mixer until smooth.

Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well incorporated.

Fill the Strawberries:

Fill a piping bag with the cream cheese mixture, using a star tip for a decorative touch.

Pipe the filling onto each sliced strawberry.

Garnish and Serve:

Finish each strawberry with a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs.

Serve immediately and enjoy!

Serving:

These cheesecake-deviled strawberries are best enjoyed fresh. Serve them as a delightful dessert or a finger-licking appetizer at your next party or gathering.

They will call you different when you’re truly authentically real. They will call you crazy but that’s OK because this world needs more authentic and real. Just be real reality quote

 


"They will call you ""crazy"" because you are, because you were born with the gift of seeing things differently and that scares them."


They're going to call you "intense" because you are, because you were born with the value well placed to allow yourself to feel it all fully and that intimidates them.


They're going to call you "selfish" because that's right, because you found out that you're the most important thing in your life and that doesn't suit them.


You’re going to be called in many ways, with many judgments, for a long time, but stay firm on yourself and what you want, and I promise you one day they’re going to call you to say, “thank you for existing.”


-Frida Kahlo

Every moment someone leaves this world behind and that’s reality- loving life is important reminder quote

 


Every minute someone leaves this world behind.

We are all in “the line” without knowing it.

We never know how many people are before us.

We can not move to the back of the line.

We can not step out of the line.

We can not avoid the line.

So while we wait in line -

Make moments count.

Make priorities.

Make the time.

Make your gifts known.

Make a nobody feel like a somebody.

Make your voice heard.

Make the small things big.

Make someone smile.

Make the change.

Make love.

Make up.

Make peace.

Make sure to tell your people they are loved.

Make sure to have no regrets.

Make sure you are ready

Evening sunsets with my bestie from the deck

 





I love these evenings the most! 

I choose to remember you not by how you hurt me, but by how you taught me to heal

 


I choose to remember you

Not by how you hurt me

But by how you taught me to heal


Not by how you left me

But by how you taught me to never abandon myself 


Not by how you broke me

But by how you taught me to rebuild myself 


Not by how you dimmed my light  

But by how you helped me to shine 


Not by how you kept me trapped in a place of comfort 

But by how you empowered me to leave my comfort zone 


Not by how you left me feeling weak

But by how you taught me what it means to be strong 


Not by how you tried to control me 

But by how you taught me to be free


Not by who you told me who I was

But by how you taught me to define myself 


And above all

I choose to remember you 

Not by how you were unable to love me 

But by how you taught me 

To love myself.
