Equipment
- Cutting Board
- Sharp knife
- 12 6-inch wooden skewers
- Serving platter
Ingredients
- 1 batch Fresh Milled Flour Cakey Brownies baked and cooled or brownies of your choosing store bought even work:)
- 12 fresh strawberries
- 24 large marshmallows
- 36 fresh blueberries
- 12 6- inch wooden skewers
Instructions
- Prepare the brownies – Bake and cool the Fresh Milled Flour Cakey Brownies completely. Cut the brownies into 24 bite-sized cubes, about 1 inch each. Or use you choice of brownies.
- Wash and dry the fruit – Wash the strawberries and blueberries, then dry them thoroughly. Removing as much moisture as possible helps the kabobs stay fresh and keeps the brownies from becoming damp.
- Prepare the strawberries – Remove the strawberry stems and slice each berry in half lengthwise. On one half, trim a small slice from the rounded side to create a flatter edge so it nestles neatly against the marshmallow.
- Begin assembling the kabobs – Thread 1 brownie cube, 1 strawberry half with the point facing outward, 1 blueberry, 1 marshmallow, and 1 strawberry half onto each skewer.
- Finish the pattern – Add 1 brownie cube, 1 blueberry, 1 marshmallow, 1 strawberry half, and 1 blueberry to complete each kabob.
- Repeat the assembly – Continue threading the ingredients in the same order until you have 12 patriotic brownie kabobs.
- Chill and serve – Arrange the finished kabobs on a serving platter and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
Storage – Store the assembled kabobs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Make Ahead – The brownies can be baked 1–2 days in advance. Assemble the kabobs on the day you plan to serve them for the freshest appearance.
Cottage Cooking Tip – Use completely cooled brownies and cut the cubes close to the size of the marshmallows. This helps the brownies hold their shape on the skewers and creates a neat, uniform presentation.
Serving Suggestion – Serve these kabobs for Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, Labor Day, summer cookouts, or backyard barbecues. Keep them chilled until shortly before serving, especially when entertaining outdoors.
