Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • Brownie Batter or Mix – This creates the rich fudgy cubes that form the heart of each kabob. Store-bought mix works great, or go homemade for extra flavor.
  • Ripe Strawberries – Sweet juicy berries bring freshness and a pop of color. Wash and remove the tops before using.
  • Marshmallows – Soft and fluffy they add a chewy contrast. You can swap them with banana slices or chunks of angel food cake for variety.
For the Chocolate Finish
  • Chocolate Chips Semi-Sweet – Perfect for melting and drizzling over the kabobs. Dark or milk chocolate also works depending on your taste.
For Building the Kabobs
  • Wooden Skewers – Essential for stacking and serving these fun handheld treats.

Method
 

    1. Bake the Brownies

    Start by heating your oven according to the brownie mix directions. Prepare the batter, pour it into a greased pan, and bake until set. Let the brownies cool completely, then cut into bite-sized cubes.

    2. Prepare the Strawberries

    Rinse the strawberries under cold water and remove the stems. Pat them dry well so they don’t add extra moisture to the kabobs.

    3. Build the Skewers

    Take a skewer and slide on a brownie piece, followed by a strawberry, then a marshmallow. Repeat the pattern until the skewer is filled, leaving space at the end for easy holding.

    4. Melt the Chocolate

    Place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in short bursts, stirring in between, until smooth and glossy.

    5. Add the Chocolate Touch

    Dip the kabobs halfway into the melted chocolate or drizzle it over the top using a spoon. Place them on parchment paper.

    6. Chill and Serve

    Refrigerate for about 10–15 minutes until the chocolate sets. Serve on a tray or in jars for a fun presentation.

Notes

What to Serve Alongside

  • Whipped cream for dipping
  • Warm chocolate sauce or fondue
  • Fresh fruit salad for balance
  • Vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence
  • Sparkling lemonade for a refreshing drink
  • Mini cupcakes for a festive dessert spread

Storage Tips

  • Refrigerator: Keep leftovers in a sealed container for up to 2 days.
  • Freezer: Freeze without chocolate topping for up to 3 months. Add chocolate after thawing.
  • Reheat: Microwave briefly (10–15 seconds) if you prefer them slightly warm.
  • Best Tip: Assemble right before serving for the freshest texture.

Fun Variations

  • Healthier Swap: Use whole wheat brownies or replace marshmallows with fruit.
  • Vegan Version: Choose dairy-free brownies, marshmallows, and chocolate.
  • Festive Style: Add sprinkles or seasonal fruits.
  • Nutty Crunch: Sprinkle chopped nuts over melted chocolate.
  • Tropical Mix: Add pineapple or kiwi chunks.
  • Chocolate Lovers: Use white, milk, and dark chocolate drizzles.
  • S’mores Twist: Add graham cracker crumbs and toasted marshmallows.
  • Doughnut Swap: Replace brownies with doughnut holes for a fun change.

Helpful Tips

  • Dry strawberries well to avoid soggy kabobs.
  • Let brownies cool fully before cutting and assembling.
  • Melt chocolate slowly to keep it smooth and glossy.
  • Chill the finished kabobs so the chocolate sets perfectly.

Make-Ahead Tips

You can prep components in advance! Cut brownies and clean strawberries up to a day ahead and store them separately in the fridge. Melted chocolate can be prepared a few days early and kept in an airtight container. When ready, assemble and drizzle for a quick, stress-free dessert that still looks and tastes amazing.
