Cappadona Ranch Valentine's Strawberries

Contributed by: Marissa Jackson

Ingredients:

18-24 large Strawberries
1 (8 ounce) package of cream cheese softened
1/3 cup sour cream
2/3 cup monk fruit sweetener (or granulated sugar)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 cup heavy whipping cream
½ cup Cappadona Ranch Mesquite Bean Flour

Directions:

Prep the strawberries by cutting off the stems and slicing them in half. Cut a small sliver off the back of each berry half so they don’t wobble. Use a small melon baller to carefully hollow out the middle.
Beat the softened cream cheese, sour cream, monk fruit sweetener, vanilla extract and lemon juice in a medium sized mixing bowl (DO NOT ADD heavy whipping cream) until smooth.
In a separate bowl beat the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
Fold the whipping cream into the cream cheese mixture.
Fill a piping bag with cream cheese minture and pipe onto each sliced strawberry.
Finish with a sprinkle of Cappadona Ranch Mesquite Bean Flour.
