dream cheese-stuffed strawberries

my good friend mj is a whiz in the kitchen.  she really comes up with the most delicious recipes, and they are always a wonderous sight to behold, too!  this is one of the creations i've borrowed from her throughout our friendship, and i know that, like me, you won't be able to stop yourself from wolfing down about a million of them.  but we can justify all that cheese and sugar with the fact that we'll get all of our fruit servings in one sitting :)

i've already made these a few times this year, and they've been a HUGE hit with family & friends!
