Brownie Fruit Kabobs

A fun treat for special occassions. Great for kids parties.

1 recipe brownies
4 cups fresh pineapple chunks
5 cups fresh strawberries, halved
10 large bananas, cut into 1" pieces
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
¼ cup butter
21 (10") bamboo skewers

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C/160°C fan, Gas Mark 4). Line pan with foil, letting foil hang 2" over side of pan. Spray or grease bottom only of foil.

Make brownies as directed. Spread in pan.

Bake 28-30 minutes or until toothpick inserted 2" from side comes out almost clean. Cool completely. Lift brownie from pan; remove foil. Cut brownies into 1¼" squares.

Line cookie sheets with waxed paper. Alternately, thread 3 brownie squares, 2 pineapple chunks, 2 strawberry halves and 2 banana slices on each skewer. Place kabobs on waxed paper.

In small microwaveable bowl, microwave chocolate chips and butter uncovered on High 1-2 minutes, stirring once until chocolate is melted. Drizzle over kabobs.

Cook's Notes: Make kabobs your way using your favourite fruits and changing the chocolate drizzle to white chocolate or dark chocolate.  Brush the banana slices with lemon juice to keep them from turning brown.
