Strawberry Dreams - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 lbs fresh strawberries (medium to large work best)
    2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
    4 ounces sour cream
    1/4 cup powdered sugar, adjust according to your sweet tooth
    1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/8 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
    2 tablespoons of grated semisweet chocolate, looks pretty in the cream (optional)
Preparation
    Wash strawberries.
    Cut out small hole/core in tops of strawberries (This hole is where the cream will sit).
    Blend cream cheese, sour cream, powdered sugar& extract (s) in a bowl on medium speed until light and fluffy.
    Fold 2 tbsp of grated chocolate into cream mixture (optional).
    Spoon mixture into a decorating bag with decorating tip of your choice (If you don't have decorating bags lying around, you can make do by using a large zip lock bag- Just cut a very small piece off one of the bottom corners to use as the decorating tip).
    Squeeze the cream mixture into the holes/cores of the strawberries.
    Finally, top each strawberry off with a blueberry.
    Best if chilled for at least an hour before serving (while everyone is eating the main course is fine).
