Strawberry Bombs

### Instructions:

**Step 1: Prepare the Strawberries**
Start by washing your strawberries thoroughly. Remove the stems and hulls, creating a hollow space in the center of each berry using a small spoon or a strawberry corer. Be careful not to puncture the bottom of the strawberries while doing this.

**Step 2: Make the Cream Cheese Filling**
In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. You can adjust the sweetness to your preference by adding more or less powdered sugar.

**Step 3: Stuff the Strawberries**
Spoon the cream cheese mixture into a piping bag or a plastic sandwich bag (cutting off the tip of the bag). Carefully pipe the mixture into each strawberry, filling them generously.

**Step 4: Coat the Bombs**
Next, roll each stuffed strawberry into the crushed graham crackers or cookie crumbs. This will give them a crunchy texture that contrasts beautifully with the creamy filling. If you’re using chocolate chips, you can roll them into the mini chips or sprinkle them on top for an extra layer of flavor.

**Step 5: Drizzle with White Chocolate**
For a touch of elegance, melt white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the stuffed strawberries to add a sweet finishing touch.

**Step 6: Garnish and Serve**
Top each strawberry with a fresh mint leaf for an extra pop of color and freshness. Chill your Strawberry Bombs in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together.

### Tips and Variations:
– **Flavor Variations:** You can experiment by adding flavored cream cheese, like strawberry or lemon, for an added twist. You could also add a bit of cinnamon or cocoa powder to the graham cracker crumbs for a different flavor profile.
– **Dipping:** Instead of rolling the strawberries in crumbs, you can dip them in melted chocolate for a more indulgent treat.
– **Add Nuts:** If you like a bit of crunch, add finely chopped nuts like almonds or pistachios to the graham cracker crumbs.
