Cupids arrows and Cheesecake strawberries


I felt the need to make something Valentine's related.
These were easier than easy. 
Cinnamon gummy hearts.
Pretzel sticks.
Waa la. 


Shoved a few in a bag, added the cute 
'Cupid's Arrows' tag, and shoved the bags in a fun Valentine-y box
Idea seen here

My friend had been talking about cheesecake stuffed strawberries
forever. Finally, when he was about to go back onto his stupid diet,
I found the motivation to attempt them. 
Don't mind the crappy pictures- apparently my camera 
was on some horrible setting that I could not undo.
Pathetic, I know. But it has since been resolved
and I am back to better, brighter pics again.
They're no Rebel pics, but shoot if I can't
figure out my lil point n shoot, theres no hope :)

First cut and hull the strawberries.
It seriously makes me smile that they  are standing up :)


Fill 'em up with cheesecake.
Oh yeah. Make sure its the no bake kind..
Sadly, my favorite recipe was not,
 so I opted for the Jello- No Bake..
it still got the vote in the end.

Then, dip it in chocolate, and graham crackers.
One or the other or both.
I of course opted to go with both.
I apparently was supposed to do just graham crackers.
Those ones are actually kinda prettier.
Not that you'd know, since I failed with the after pics.
Then again, even if I had taken some, they wouldve sucked.
At least they tasted good. :)
