Orange Cream Stuffed Strawberries

In honor of Valentines Day, I thought that I would post some romantic eats for the next couple of days. Anyone can make chocolate covered strawberries, so why not make these yummy little treats for your sweetie instead? Not only do these look fabulous but they taste fabulous too! They get eaten up pretty quick when I make them ! I hope you enjoy this deliciously easy recipe!

INGREDIENTS:

1 pt fresh strawberries

1	(8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened to room temp
1/2 c	confectioners' sugar, or to taste
1 tsp	orange extract
1	square of melting chocolate
1/8 tsp	vegetable oil
	tip: you can use any flavor of extract you want. you can divide the cream cheese and do half in orange and half in french vanilla too!

DIRECTIONS:

1) Cut the tops off of the strawberries and stand upright on the cut side. Make 2 cuts 3/4 of the way down from the tip of the strawberry towards the bottom.

2)Beat together the cream cheese, sugar, and extract until smooth in a mixer or a food processor. Place into a piping bag with a star tip. Pipe into each strawberry. 

3) Place the strawberries on wax paper.

4) Melt Chocolate in microwave, mix well. Add the oil to the chocolate to thin it out a bit. Mix it and put a fork in the bowl of chocolate and drizzle chocolate over the strawberries. You could also melt some white chocolate in a bowl and drizzle both chocolates over the strawberries.

5)Place on a serving platter and enjoy!
