Ingredients:

2. Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
3. Fill the Strawberries: Transfer the cream cheese mixture to a piping bag or a plastic bag with a corner snipped off. Pipe the filling into each strawberry cavity, filling them generously.
4. Add Topping: Dip the top of each filled strawberry into graham cracker crumbs to add a satisfying crunch.
5. Chill and Serve: Place the filled strawberries in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to chill. This sets the filling and enhances the flavors.
