I would have never thought of making strawberry cream cheese from scratch. However, I happened to have homemade cream cheese and homemade strawberry syrup and was surprised how good they were together. This recipe is the combination of three recipes (yogurt, cream cheese & syrup) which can be made at different times and combined just prior to serving.
Ingredients
- Homemade cream cheese: To make homemade cream cheese, strain homemade yogurt for 5 to 6 hours or over night in the refrigerator. Follow the instructions for homemade yogurt and then follow the recipe for Greek yogurt. However, for cream cheese, stir in salt prior to straining and let strain for a longer period of time to get a thicker cream cheese.
- Homemade strawberry syrup: To make strawberry syrup, substitute strawberries for mango in this recipe for mango syrup recipe. This can be canned and stocked in your pantry.
- Cream together a teaspoon or so of strawberry syrup with your homemade cream cheese. Continue stirring in cream cheese until the desired consistency is achieved.
