1. Prepare the strawberries

• Wash and dry the strawberries thoroughly.

• Using a small paring knife, cut off the leafy tops to create a flat base so the strawberries can stand upright.

• Carefully hollow out the center of each strawberry using a small spoon or melon baller.

2. Make the cheesecake filling

• In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.

• Mix in vanilla extract and Greek yogurt (if using) for extra fluffiness.

• Transfer the filling into a piping bag or a plastic zip-top bag with the corner cut off for easy filling.

3. Fill the strawberries

• Pipe or spoon the cheesecake filling into the hollowed-out strawberries, filling them just to the top.

• Smooth the filling with a spoon or a spatula for a polished look.

4. Add toppings

• Dip or sprinkle the tops of the filled strawberries with crushed graham crackers.

• For a decorative touch, drizzle melted chocolate over the strawberries.

• If using nuts or coconut, sprinkle them over the filling before the chocolate sets.

5. Chill and serve

• Place the cheesecake bites on a tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

• Serve chilled and enjoy!
