  1. In a medium bowl, gently combine 8 ounces of mascarpone cheese, 1/4 cup dried cranberries (finely chopped), 1 tablespoon orange zest, and 1 tablespoon of your favorite orange liqueur (optional).
  2. If desired, add powdered sugar to taste (start with 1-2 tablespoons and adjust). Mix until well combined.
  3. Hull and halve 12 medium-large strawberries. Gently pipe or spoon the mascarpone mixture into the strawberry halves. If not piping, serve the filling as a dip!

  5. Garnish with extra orange zest or a sprinkle of powdered sugar before serving.
