Total Time: 45 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 kebabs
Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 12 fresh strawberries
- 12 skewers
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs. Whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps, about 2-3 minutes.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Bake the brownies for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan for about 1 hour.
- Once cooled, use the parchment paper to lift the brownies out of the pan and transfer to a cutting board.
- Using a heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out 12 heart-shaped brownie pieces.
- Wash and pat dry the fresh strawberries. Remove the stems and ensure they are clean and dry.
- Take each skewer and carefully thread a strawberry followed by a brownie heart. Alternate between strawberry and brownie to create a visually appealing kebab.
- Optional: Dust the kebabs with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate for extra decoration.
- Serve immediately or chill for 30 minutes to set the chocolate (if using).
Tips
- • For the most photogenic kebabs, choose uniformly sized strawberries and make sure they're completely dry before threading. • Use a sharp heart-shaped cookie cutter for clean, precise brownie cuts. • Let brownies cool completely to ensure they hold their shape when cutting and skewering. • For a professional touch, chill the kebabs before serving to help them set and look more polished. • Experiment with drizzling white or dark chocolate for extra decoration. • If you're making these for kids or a party, let guests help assemble their own kebabs for added fun!
