Strawberry Sparklers

1 lb fresh large strawberries
1 cup light cream cheese
1/2 cup diced or chopped nuts
2 tablespoons rainbow sprinkles

Wash strawberries under cold, running water to remove any excess dirt. Pat them very dry with paper towels. Place cream cheese in small glass bowl, cover and microwave until soft and warm, about 30-45 seconds. Stir well. Place chopped almonds and colored sprinkles in a small bowl. Dip strawberries in cream cheese then in nut/sprinkle mixture. Place them on a small plate then refrigerate to firm up the cream cheese. Serve chilled. You will have 1/2 cup of cream cheese left over; reserve it for another use.
