Ingredients
Fruits
- 1 pound fresh strawberries
Cake
- 1 package angel food cake, cut into cubes
Toppings
- 1 cup melted chocolate (optional)
- 1 cup whipped cream
Others
- Wooden skewers
Instructions
- Prepare Strawberries: Wash and hull the strawberries thoroughly. If they are large, cut them in half to ensure even size for threading.
- Assemble Kabobs: Alternate threading strawberries and angel food cake cubes onto wooden skewers, leaving some space at the bottom for easy handling.
- Add Chocolate (Optional): If desired, dip the finished kabobs lightly into melted chocolate or drizzle the chocolate over them for added flavor and presentation.
- Serve with Whipped Cream: Present the kabobs with a side of whipped cream for dipping or drizzling, making the dessert more indulgent and creamy.
Notes
- Use fresh, firm strawberries for best results and ease of threading.
- Angel food cake can be store-bought or homemade.
- Melt the chocolate gently using a double boiler or microwave to avoid burning.
- These kabobs are best served immediately to maintain cake texture and freshness of strawberries.
- For a lower-sugar option, use dark chocolate with high cocoa content or omit the chocolate entirely.
