Valentine’s Day is coming up! My favorite tradition is to make my no-bake raspberry cheesecake, but I wanted to make something quick & easy this year so I decided to try cheesecake stuffed strawberries. My 3-year-old helped me & although it took longer with her, we had fun & whipped these up in under 10 minutes 🙂 When my other kiddos got home from school, it was I could do to keep them from devouring the plate of strawberries that I was trying to photograph. So if you want really quick & easy then these 3-ingredient cheesecake stuffed strawberries are for you 😉 To be fair, I didn’t count the strawberries as on of the ingredients & the chocolate drizzles is just a bonus 😉
