Chocolate Strawberry Kabobs
I have to say one of my all time favorite combos is chocolate and strawberries. These dessert skewers are one of my top ways to pair the two, as well as my chocolate covered strawberries and brownie strawberry trifle. Seriously delicious!
If you know me, I’m all about simple, EASY, yet delicious recipes! These dessert kabobs are just that! I first saw these at a baby shower a few months ago and I had to make them at home with my kiddos. They absolutely loved them and they were the perfect treat for them to help in kitchen.
It would be fun to have a whole station set up at a shower/party and let your guests make their own dessert kabobs. You could get creative and have different fruit and different kinds of treats to add like brownies, short cake, rice krispies, marshmallows and donut holes. The possibilities are endless! I’m drooling just thinking about a donut kabob. Must stop now!
What You Need
Strawberries: You’ll need 24 fresh strawberries, which is about 2 pints.
Marshmallows: Large marshmallows work best for this recipe.
Brownies: I bought mini brownie bites to make it easier, but you could always make your own in a mini muffin pan. You could also cut out mini circles like I did with these strawberry santas.
Hot fudge sauce: I love using hot fudge for drizzling, but plain melted chocolate works great too.
Skewers: I used 6-inch knotted bamboo cocktail skewers.
How to Make Dessert Kabobs
- Wash strawberries. Wash and dry the strawberries. Then slice the tops off.
- Assemble. Poke the strawberry, marshmallow and brownie bite through your skewer. Place on a plate or wax paper.
- Drizzle. Add a drizzle of warm fudge sauce or melted chocolate over each kabob.
Assembling in Advance
If you have plans on assembling these dessert kabobs in advance, I’d recommend waiting to add the strawberries and chocolate drizzle until the very end.
Once strawberries are cut, they can lose their juices rather quickly in the fridge (especially when touching other foods containing sugar). For a party, I’d recommend prepping the brownies and marshmallows ahead, and then cutting the strawberries and assembling the kabobs an hour or two before the party.

Looks delicious! But why are there 12 brownies and 12 marshmallows, but 24 strawberries? Just curious
I show 2 versions, one with 2 strawberries on each end. Either will work :)

So fun and SO so good!

Hello! What size skewers did you use for the single strawberry, standing kabobs?
I believe they were 6 inch skewers! :)
Great! Thank you!
Ok thank u that’s exactly what I’ll do. :)
I need to make a 100 of these for a event in a few days can i make the day b4? I don’t think I’ll be able to do a 100 that day.
With those cut strawberries, I’d be concerned about them letting their juices out overnight. If you assembled all except for the strawberries and chocolate drizzle, then you could get a head start the day the before. :)
OK, will do! Thanks a lot for the help :D
How long could you store them in the fridge for before serving? I want to pre-make them 1 – 1.5 days before serving them at a party, do you think they would keep that long? Thanks
Hi Di! Once strawberries are cut, they can lose their juices rather quickly in the fridge (especially when touching other foods containing sugar). For a party, I’d recommend prepping the brownies ahead, and then cutting the strawberries and assembling the kebobs an hour or two before the party. :)
How did you do the chocolate? Did you pipe it? What kind did you use?
We used hot fudge sauce, lightly warmed in the microwave, and drizzled using a spoon. :)
These look delicious! The perfect family night treat right here!
