Strawberry Cheesecake Waffle Cones 🍓🍰😋
Ingredients:
For the Strawberry Cheesecake Filling:
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional, for extra tang)
For the Topping:
1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Whipped cream (store-bought or homemade)
Waffle cones
Instructions:
Prepare the Strawberry Cheesecake Filling:
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Add the sour cream and continue to beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
Stir in the vanilla extract and lemon juice (if using).
Fold in the finely chopped strawberries until evenly distributed.
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Prepare the Strawberry Topping:
In a small bowl, combine the sliced strawberries with granulated sugar and vanilla extract.
Let the mixture sit for about 10-15 minutes to allow the strawberries to release their juices.
Assemble the Waffle Cones:
Spoon the chilled cheesecake filling into the waffle cones, packing it in gently.
Top with the sugared strawberries and any extra juice from the bowl.
Add a dollop of whipped cream on top of each cone.
