21 Reviews of Amaretto Sour Cream Strawberries

Easiest recipe ever! mix 3 ingredients and viola! A creamy dip for all kinds of fruit. I tried the posted recipe, and it turned out great. I added some Jamaican Cream rum, which really enhanced the flavor. You should be able to substitute the Amaretto with other alcohols (Frangelico, Bailey's, Creme d'Cacao, etc). Oh! and for the bartenders out there: 3 Tbsp = 1 Ounce.

    Great recipe! I've made it twice. The second time I used brown sugar and yogurt... a different taste- but it was very delicious that way, too. It's so hot today and it was a nice, light, cool lunch.

    This was pretty good, but a very stong amaretto taste (which I normally love) - next time I may reduce it to two tablespoons. I wouldn't say it was a hit at my party, but my husband loved it!

    What a great easy to make & easy to eat dessert! I esp like the fact that it's company-worthy when you’ve had an otherwise heavy meal & want something light & tasty that presents well. The strawberries could also be paired w/bite-size pound cake as an added touch. I suspect it would be equally good w/many fresh fruits & fresh pineapple comes immediately to mind. This is a keeper for us. Thx for posting.

    twissis brought this gem of a recipe to my attention and I'm so glad she did - it is excellent and so easy! I used 2% ultra-thick Greek yoghurt in place of the sour cream so I felt very virtuous eating this. A keeper.

    We love Amaretto, so this was a big hit at Blakey Towers! I didn't quite have enough sour cream so topped up with Greek yogurt. Yummy!

    So easy and such a nice treat with fresh fruit! I used lower fat sour cream and it still tasted great. Thank you for sharing this recipe!

    Well...I took a little liberty with the recipes...was planning to go buy the strawberries to make this when my mom showed up with fresh cherries from Eastern Washington...amazing cherries, Rainiers, Bing, Vins...yum...decided to use the recipe with the cherries! It was amazing. So easy and so elegant and so tasty!! I didn't have any powdered sugar, so made without, and it was fabulous. Also dipped the cherries in brown sugar after the cream. So goood!! Thanks for a great recipe!

    I got a last minute invitation to an Easter dinner party and I didn't think I'd have time to prepare anything to bring. I passed a roadside produce stand on the way where they were selling beautiful strawberries and remembered seeing this recipe. It was perfect. It was so easy to put together and looks and tastes so elegant! It was a huge hit and a lifesaver for me! I used a little less sugar because these strawberries were so sweet and a little more amaretto. Thank you for sharing this simple and beautiful recipe.

    NUMMY!!!!!!!!! One more recipe for PAC 06. I had fresh picked strawberries on hand so dh and I endulged. I can vision using other liquers besides ameretto if you want to experiment. Leave the tops on though they are great to use for the dipping. Thanks Sheri !!
