Strawberry Santas

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Total Time: 10 minutes

Servings: 10

Ingredients

• 16 oz. package of fresh California strawberries, washed
• 8 oz. low-fat cream cheese, softened at room temperature
• 4 Tbsp. honey or powdered sugar
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• ½ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

1. On a cutting board, slice the stem off a strawberry (try to cut it as “flat” as possible since the Santa-berries will use that as a base).
2. Cut the top third of the strawberry; this will be used as the “hat.”
3. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, honey or powdered sugar, and vanilla. Mixture will be thick so it’s best that the cream cheese really is at room temperature.
4. Transfer the filling to a piping bag with a small closed star tip.
5. Pipe a 1-inch tall swirl of frosting for the head and pipe two little swooshes for the mustache on the front of that swirl.
6. Pipe the buttons on the front of the bottom strawberry and pipe the top of the hat.
7. Top with a hat and add chocolate chip eyes.
