Whipped Brie Stuffed Strawberries
I’ve been really into experimenting with off the wall flavor combinations lately. I mean, I guess I’ve always liked experimenting, but it never really used to have any grounding. I would just throw things together and hope for the best, which unsurprisingly didn’t lead to many tasty successes. But I recently discovered a really neat book called The Flavor Bible (#1 best seller I might add!) that teaches you which flavors and ingredients go with what, and it’s changed the whole way I cook!
Now when I have, say, a carton of strawberries that I’m not sure what to do with, I can flip to the “strawberry” section of the Flavor Bible and peruse the index of ingredients that go well with strawberries. How cool it that?! So today, I wanted to try one such odd combination…strawberries, basil, and brie.
To make these stuffed strawberries, you’ll need:
- ½ cup brie, rind removed
- 1 teaspoon chopped chives
- ½ teaspoon chopped basil leaves + 12 whole leaves
- Pinch of salt and pepper
- 12 fresh strawberries
- 2 tablespoon balsamic reduction sauce
Kitchen tools you may find useful:
Rather than stuffing the brie right into the strawberry, we’re going to whip it up in a food processor (or blender) first. This will give it a creamy texture that will be easy to stuff right into the strawberries. Mix in a bit of basil and chives, hollow out your strawberries, and start stuffing!
These tasty little treats are healthy and delicious, plus they make a great take-along appetizer when headed to a party or barbecue.

Before You Begin
Instructions
- Prepare strawberries by removing the stems. Using a paring knife or strawberry huller, create a small hole in each strawberry in which to stuff the brie.
- In a food processor, whip brie until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add chives, basil, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Scoop brie into a piping bag (or plastic bag with the tip cut off).
- To assemble, place a basil leaf in each strawberry, then stuff with the brie mixture. Drizzle with balsamic reduction, and sprinkle with chopped chives and ground black pepper. This is best when not served ultra-cold, but closer to room temperature.

Love, love the whipped brie stuffed strawberries. Delicious! I think I need to check out the flavor bible too. Sounds like a great book to reference when you have ingredients on hand.
Hope you enjoyed your 4th of July!
