Ingredients

  1. fresh strawberries
  2. cool whip
  3. festive sprinkles

Can I make these Strawberry Santas in advance?

Yes you can! If you’re planning on serving these later in the day or next day, I recommend freezing the whipped cream so it’s firm. Once the Strawberry Santas are made, keep them in the refrigerator or freezer until you’re ready to serve.

How to Make Santa with Strawberries and Whipped Cream

Cut the strawberries near where you removed the stems so they stand up on a plate. Slice the tip off each strawberry to make Santa’s hat.

Add cool whip into a plastic bag and cut off tip to make a DIY piping bag.
