🥗Healthier: coconut whipped cream

Coconut whipped cream is dairy-free.

Take a small medium bowl and add 1/3 cup of very cold heavy whipping cream.

Add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the bowl.

Using a hand mixer, beat the cream and vanilla on low, gradually increasing the speed until stiff peaks form.

Once stiff peaks are achieved, refrigerate the whipped cream to prevent it from deflating.

Take 4 oz of softened cream cheese and place it in a mixing bowl.

Add 1/4 cup of room temperature sour cream to the cream cheese.

Blend the cream cheese and sour cream together until well combined and smooth.

Add 1/2 cup of powdered sugar to the mixture and blend until incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Fold the chilled whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture gently to combine without deflating it.

Wash the strawberries and let them drain to remove excess liquid.

Cut the strawberries in half, leaving the stems on or removing them based on preference.

Use a tomato corer to remove the center of each strawberry half to create a cavity for the filling.

Take the cream cheese filling out of the refrigerator and either spoon or pipe it into the hollowed strawberries.

Blot any excess moisture from the strawberries with a paper towel before filling them.
