Strawberries with Lavender Honey and Goat Cheese

2 pints of perfect strawberries
1 5 oz. log of goat cheese, room temperature
¼ c. of lavender honey, or to taste.

To make the Strawberries with Lavender Honey and Goat Cheese combine the honey and the goat cheese. Mix until smooth.

Rinse strawberries and let dry. With stem side down, cut vertically from the tip of the strawberry down to the hull—but do not cut through the hull end. Repeat at a 90 degree angle so you create a cross. Repeat with all the strawberries.

Fit a pastry bag with a star tip. Fill the bag with the honey and goat cheese mixture. Pipe a small amount into the center of each berry. Chill up to 3 hours.

Garnish with a lavender blossom or a little dried Herbs de Provence, if desired.

Makes approximately 25 strawberries.
