Recipe Summary Strawberry Roses

My husband and I created these delicious strawberries for a Valentine's dinner we hosted several years ago. They've been a favorite of ours for many years. They are simple to make for any romantic dinner.

Ingredients | Hybrid Tea Rose Tequila Sunrise

2 cups mascarpone cheese

1 ¼ cups confectioners' sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ cup whipped cream

16 large strawberries, washed and dried well

¼ cup coarse granulated sugar

2 teaspoons lemon zest

Directions

Beat the mascarpone cheese, confectioners sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl until smooth. Fold in the whipped cream. Spoon cheese mixture into a piping bag fitted with a star tip.

Leaving the stem end in tact, cut off the tip of each strawberry, and carefully remove the core using a small, thin knife. Stand strawberries upright (stem end down), and slice through the tip toward the stem. Do not cut completely through. Repeat, slicing a total of 4 times. Each strawberry will have 8 sections. Roll the strawberries in the sugar.

Gently open each strawberry and fill each with the cheese mixture, using a circular motion. Arrange strawberry roses on a platter, and sprinkle with lemon zest.

The roses are easier to form if strawberries are at cool room temperature when filling.
