These Strawberry Santas are adorable, no-bake treats made with fresh strawberries and a sweet cream filling. Perfect for kids and adults alike, they add a festive and healthy touch to your holiday dessert table.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pint (500 g) fresh strawberries
  • 1/2 cup (115 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup (30 g) powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Mini chocolate chips (for eyes)

Instructions

1. Prepare the strawberries

  1. Wash and dry the strawberries. Remove the green stems.
  2. Slice off the top third of each strawberry to create the “Santa hat.”

2. Make the cream filling

  1. In a small bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  2. Transfer the mixture to a piping bag or a zip-top bag with the tip snipped off.

3. Assemble the Santas

  1. Pipe a dollop of cream onto the bottom portion of each strawberry to create Santa’s “body.”
  2. Place the strawberry top (hat) back on, slightly tilted if desired. Pipe a small dot of cream on the tip of the “hat” for the pom-pom.
  3. Add mini chocolate chips for Santa’s eyes, gently pressing them into the cream filling.

4. Serve

  • Arrange the Santas on a platter and serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.

Notes

  • Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Serve chilled.
  • Make-ahead tip: Prepare the filling in advance and assemble the Santas just before serving for maximum freshness.
  • Variations: Use whipped cream or mascarpone instead of cream cheese for a lighter texture.
