Strawberry Santas (Print Version)

Charming strawberry treats with cream cheese frosting designed to look like Santa Claus - a fun, festive holiday dessert.

# Ingredients:

→ Main Components

01 - 12 large strawberries
02 - 1 cup whipped cream cheese
03 - 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
04 - 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
05 - Decorative red and black icing

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Carefully wash the strawberries. Cut off the stem to create a flat base, then cut each strawberry into three sections: the base, middle, and top. The top will serve as the Santa hat.
02 - In a small mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth. Transfer the mixture into a piping bag.
03 - Place the base of the strawberry on a plate. Pipe the cream cheese mixture on top, ensuring it is tall enough to support the Santa hat. Place the hat (top strawberry section) on the filling. Use the piping bag to add a white dot of cream cheese at the tip of the hat.
04 - Use decorative red and black icing to draw the Santa face on the cream cheese filling.
05 - Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

# Additional Notes:

01 - Store leftover Strawberry Santas in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. They are best enjoyed fresh.
