Chocolate Cheesecake strawberries

Who doesn't love Chocolate Covered  Strawberries?

  The first thing you need is some beautiful Strawberries. This can be tricky, you must look at your container thoroughly before buying. Strawberries Have a short life, and their out of season, so who knows frow where they are shipped from.

   Now that we have that out the way. Lets get our berries washed and completely dry. This is very important, moisture is your enemy! Chocolate Is oil-based, and if water gets in your chocolate you will have trouble!

  It's time to core out the strawberries. The reason for this is, we will be piping cheesecake filling into the cavity that your creating. The bigger the cavity you create the more cheesecake you will be able to pipe in.

   The next Step is to dip your pitted berries in chocolate. Get as close to the rim without going over the top.

Remember to be careful while melting chocolate. It Will burn easily the melting temperature for chocolate is 86-90 so take it slow. You will have to allow the chocolate to harden, so place them in a cool place. 

   The next step is to have somewhere to place your berries I like to use mini cupcake holders. I sprinkle Vanilla Wafer cookie crumbs in the cups. This is my own secret way of giving you the cheesecake experience!

(I always drizzle with white chocolate)

  Set the berries in the cups. try to keep them upright as possible.

Pipe in your favorite cheesecake filling minus the egg. and then you have it!
