Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries
These high-protein cheesecake stuffed strawberries are a quick and easy no-bake dessert that’s perfect for summer. They’re made with a creamy Greek yogurt, cream cheese, and protein powder filling, then topped with a graham cracker crumble for that classic cheesecake flavor.
Servings: 24 strawberries
Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh strawberries washed and patted dry (about 24 large strawberries)
- ½ cup plain full-fat Greek yogurt
- 2 oz cream cheese softened to room temperature
- 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder
- Crushed graham crackers for serving – I used Simple Mills sweet thins
Instructions
- Slice the tops off the strawberries and trim a small sliver off the bottom of each strawberry so they can stand upright without tipping over. Then use a small spoon, paring knife, or metal teaspoon to carefully hollow out the center of each strawberry to create space for the filling. Set aside.1 lb fresh strawberries
- Add the Greek yogurt and softened cream cheese to a mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer on medium speed, whip together until smooth and fluffy, scraping down the sides as needed.½ cup plain full-fat Greek yogurt, 2 oz cream cheese

- Transfer the filling to a piping bag or zip-top bag with the corner cut off. Pipe the filling into each hollowed strawberries until full. You can also spoon the filling in if needed.
- Sprinkle the strawberries with crushed graham crackers. Store immediately or store in the fridge until ready to serve.Crushed graham crackers
Notes
- Make-ahead tip: You can prep and fill the strawberries a few hours in advance. Keep them chilled and uncovered or lightly covered so they don’t get too soft, and wait to add the graham cracker topping until right before serving so it stays crisp.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
