Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

Yes. I often bake the brownies the day before, cool them, and keep the brownie cubes in the fridge. The next day I thread the kabobs and add fresh chocolate. It saves time and keeps the strawberries at their best.

How do I prevent the strawberries from turning mushy?

Use ripe but firm strawberries and pat them dry before using. Keep assembled kabobs refrigerated until just before serving.

Can I use metal skewers instead of wooden ones?

Yes. Metal skewers work well and are reusable. If using metal, be mindful they can get hot if you briefly warm the skewers.

My chocolate seized. What should I do?

Stir in a small teaspoon of oil or a pat of butter while it is still warm. That usually smooths it out. If it is too far gone, start with new chocolate and add a little fat slowly while melting.

Are there nut-free options?

Absolutely. Skip any nut mix-ins and ensure the chocolate and marshmallows are made in nut-free facilities if you need to be strict.

Instructions

Preheat your oven according to the brownie mix box or your homemade recipe. Grease the pan lightly or line it with parchment paper.
Combine the brownie mix with eggs, oil, and water. Stir until the batter is smooth and glossy.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake according to the package or recipe instructions.
Cool brownies on a wire rack. Wash and hull the strawberries.
Cut the cooled brownies into bite-size cubes.
Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler until smooth.
Thread a marshmallow, a brownie cube, and a strawberry onto each skewer, repeat the pattern if the skewer is long enough.
Dip the kabobs in melted chocolate or drizzle chocolate over the brownies, allowing excess to drip off.
Chill the finished kabobs in the refrigerator for 10 to 15 minutes.
Serve on a platter and enjoy!

Notes

These kabobs are best eaten the same day. Use room temperature ingredients for a fudgier brownie texture.
