Step 1

Combine room-temperature cream cheese, sour cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Using a stand or hand mixer, mix until smooth and fully combined.

Step 2

Put the cheesecake filling into a piping bag or a ziplock bag with a star piping tip. Set aside for assembly.

Step 3

Combine strawberries and sugar in a small saucepan. Cook on low-medium heat for about 10 mins.

Step 4

Once the strawberries have reduced, smash them with a spoon and mix in your lemon zest. Set aside in the fridge to cool.

Step 5

When the strawberry compote is cool, you can blend it to make a smooth sauce. Then, set aside for assembly.

Step 6

Remove the center from 8-10 Golden Oreos before combining the cookies with the freeze-dried strawberries in a blender or ziplock bag. Blend or crush them until you have a fine mixture with only a few chunks.

Step 7

Place the topping in a shallow bowl and set aside for assembly.

Step 8

Clean your strawberries and then dry them extremely well. Once dry, place a toothpick into each one and then gather the leaves upwards around the toothpick.

Step 9

Melt your chocolate or candy melts in the microwave on 15-second bursts, stirring between each.

Step 10

Dip your strawberries one at a time into the melted chocolate, and then shake off the excess chocolate before rolling in the Strawberry Crunch mixture.

Step 11

Place the strawberries on parchment paper to harden after dipping and rolling them.

Step 12

Once the chocolate has hardened on your strawberries, use a knife or corer to remove the center of the berry.

Step 13

Finally pipe the cheesecake filling into the top of each strawberry, before adding garnishes, such as the strawberry compote drizzle. (ie. sprinkles, gold leaf)
