Filling and Decorating Your Strawberry Bombs
Slice and Fill the Bombs: After the dough balls have cooled a little, slice each one in half, like you would a burger bun. The center should still be soft and pillowy, which makes it perfect for holding the delicious filling. On one half, pipe or spoon a generous dollop of freshly whipped cream. You can add a little sugar to the cream if you prefer it to be sweeter, or even vanilla extract for an extra kick of flavor.
Add the Strawberries: Chop up fresh strawberries into small pieces and place them on top of the whipped cream. The natural sweetness and juiciness of the strawberries perfectly complement the richness of the cream and the crispy dough. For an even more decadent treat, feel free to drizzle some strawberry syrup or honey over the strawberries for an extra touch of sweetness.
Top it Off: Place the other half of the fried dough on top, creating a sandwich effect. To finish, sprinkle a little granulated sugar on top for an extra sparkle and a light crunch. The sugar also adds a beautiful contrast against the vibrant red of the strawberries.
