Follow these simple steps to make your Deviled Strawberries:

1. Prep the Strawberries: Wash the strawberries thoroughly. Slice the tops off and gently hollow out the insides using a small spoon or a strawberry huller, being careful not to break the outer shell.
2. Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until the mixture is creamy and well combined.
3. Optional Addition: Drizzle chocolate syrup into the filling and mix to achieve a delightful chocolate flavor.
4. Fill the Strawberries: Using a piping bag or a small spoon, carefully fill each hollowed strawberry with the cream cheese mixture.
5. Chill: Place the filled strawberries on a platter and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to set and chill.
6. Garnish: Right before serving, add fresh mint leaves as a garnish to enhance both the flavor and appearance.
7. Serve: Present the stunning Deviled Strawberries on a platter and enjoy!
