Ingredients
Scale
- 24 strawberries
- 12 brownie bites (homemade or store-bought)
- 12 large marshmallows
- 6 rice krispies treats (homemade or store-bought)
- 12 mini cream puffs
- 10–12 cubes of chocolate candy coating
Instructions
- Ingredient Preparation: Cube Rice Krispies Treats and brownie bites into uniform 1-inch pieces, ensuring consistent sizing for balanced kabobs.
- Strawberry Cleansing: Rinse strawberries under cool water and trim green tops with a paring knife, preparing them as kabob anchors and decorative elements.
- Skewer Assembly: Thread wooden skewers methodically, positioning strawberries at both ends to securely hold Rice Krispies Treats, brownie bites, and additional components.
- Chocolate Infusion: Melt chocolate candy melts in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring continuously to achieve a smooth, glossy consistency without scorching.
- Decorative Drizzling: Transfer melted chocolate to a piping bag, snipping a minimal corner to create elegant zigzag patterns across the arranged kabobs placed on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Setting and Serving: Allow chocolate coating to solidify at room temperature for 10-15 minutes, creating a crisp, glossy finish that enhances the visual and textural appeal of the dessert kabobs.
Notes
- Precision Matters: Cut Rice Krispies Treats and brownie bites into uniform 1-inch cubes for consistent kabob appearance and easy eating.
- Berry Prep Technique: Rinse strawberries gently and remove green tops cleanly with a sharp paring knife to ensure pristine fruit presentation.
- Strategic Skewering: Position strawberries at both ends of each kabob to create natural anchors and prevent ingredients from sliding around.
- Chocolate Drizzling Pro-Tip: Melt chocolate slowly over low heat, stirring constantly, and use a small-cut piping bag for controlled, elegant zigzag patterns that enhance visual appeal.
