Santa Strawberries

Oh my goodness........These are so cute!!
Keep this one for Christmas!!!!!

✿♥✿ Santa Strawberries ✿♥✿

Ingredients:
1 dozen strawberries
1 cup whipped cream
a handful of chocolate sprinkles

Directions:
Using a paring knife, slice the leafy end off each strawberry so they stand up evenly. Then slice the tip off to make a little hat.
Using a spoon or a large icing tip, place a large dollop (about 1-2 tsp) of whipped cream on top of the strawberry base. Plop the little hat on top. Add another small dollop of whipped cream to the tip of the hat to make a mock pom-pom.
Place two chocolate sprinkles in the Santa’s "face" for the eyes. Using a toothpick, place two very small splotches of whipped cream down the front of the strawberry for buttons.

You're done! It's that easy. If you don't eat them right away, store them in the fridge to keep them cold. Santa doesn't do well with heat.
