Strawberries are stuffed with a cream cheese filling for a cute two-bite dessert. Can be prepared the night before, but not much earlier than that as the berries may become soggy. Inspired by peta.org.

Instructions

1

Cut off the strawberries’ stems, then carve a hollow spot in each strawberry for the “cheesecake.”

2

Using an electric mixer, beat the vegan cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until nice and fluffy.

3

Pour in a pastry bag,* then fill each strawberry with some of the mixture.

4

Place the crackers in a sandwich bag and crush gently into crumbs.

5

Sprinkle the crumbs on top of the strawberries and voilà!

*For a DIY pastry bag, cut a hole in the bottom corner of a sandwich bag and gently pipe out the filling. If you don’t want to hollow out the strawberries, turn the “cheesecake” mixture into a creamy dip. Just submerge each strawberry in the “cheesecake” mixture, roll in the animal cracker crumbs, and enjoy!
