How to Make Strawberry Santa Claus

  1. Prepare the Cream Cheese Frosting: In a medium bowl, beat together 4 ounces of softened cream cheese and 2 tablespoons of marshmallow cream with an electric mixer on high speed until light and fluffy.
  2. Transfer the frosting to a decorating bag fitted with a #17 star tip.
  3. Prepare the Strawberries: Cut approximately 1 pound of large strawberries in half crosswise.
  4. Assemble the Santas: Place a small chunk of canned pineapple (about 1/2 inch) in the center of each strawberry half and secure with a toothpick.
  5. Decorate the Santas: Gently press two mini chocolate chips into the pineapple for eyes. Pipe a small amount of cream cheese frosting around the top of the strawberry to create Santa's hat. Then, pipe frosting around the pineapple to form Santa's beard.
  6. Chill: Refrigerate the Strawberry Santas for at least 30 minutes to allow the frosting to set.
  7. Serve: Serve your adorable Strawberry Santas on white chocolate-covered Oreos or your favorite white cookies.
