11 -12 ounces cream cheese, softened |
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar |

2. Place berries, cut side down, on a serving platter.
3. Cut each berry carefully into 4 wedges, cutting almost to, but not through, bottoms.
4. Fan wedges just slightly, taking care not to break; set berries aside.

6. Gently fold in grated chocolate.
7. Spoon mixture into a decorating bag fitted with a large decorative tip.
