Skewered Strawberry Marshmallow Smores Recipes

SKEWERED STRAWBERRY & MARSHMALLOW S'MORES

Steps:

• Prepare a medium-hot fire on one side of your grill.
• Thread the strawberries and marshmallows alternately on 4 skewers (if using wooden skewers, pre-soak them). Lightly brush the slices of bread with olive oil.
• Place the skewers directly over the fire and grill for about 4 or 5 minutes until the marshmallows have browned.
• At the same time, grill one side of the bread. Turn the slices over and move to the indirect side of the grill. Place a piece of chocolate on each slice and sprinkle with a pinch of coarse salt. Remove from the grill when the chocolate is soft but still holds its shape.
• Serve the skewers with the grilled bread for a grown-up version of s'mores.

STRAWBERRY S'MORES

Steps:

• Toast the marshmallow: Thread marshmallow onto a metal skewer and hold over medium-high heat, rotating, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Sandwich 2 small rectangles of milk chocolate, 2 toasted strawberry marshmallows and a few strawberry slices between 2 ladyfingers.

STRAWBERRY S'MORES BOUQUET

Steps:

• Put the chocolate in a microwave-safe medium bowl and microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Put the graham crackers in a small bowl.
• Thread a strawberry stem-end first onto a 6-inch wooden skewer and dip the tip straight down into the chocolate to coat half the strawberry. Lift and twist slightly, letting any excess chocolate fall back into the bowl. Dip the tip of the strawberry into the graham crackers, leaving a stripe of chocolate visible. Carefully grasp the exposed base of the strawberry and rotate and push the skewer until 1 inch of the skewer extends beyond the tip. Stick the skewer upright into a large sheet of floral foam. Repeat with the remaining strawberries. Allow the chocolate to set, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, shape two wet floral foam bricks so they fit snugly inside a 5-inch square planter, flowerpot or cardboard box. Do so by holding the bricks together and cutting them with a serrated knife so the resulting rectangle is 5 inches wide by 5 inches long by 8 inches tall. Wrap the rectangle tightly with plastic wrap and fit it into the planter (it will extend to the top). Drape about 6 large kale leaves rib-side down over the planter, sticking the stems into the planter. Try to cover the foam entirely. (Reserve the remaining kale for another use.)
• Once the chocolate-dipped strawberries are set, top each skewer with a marshmallow.
• Stick 1 skewer into the top center of the wet foam, pushing the skewer in so about 1 inch of wood is still exposed. Continue sticking the remaining skewers into the foam in concentric circles, packing the strawberries as closely as possible without touching, and working outward. When you're done, only a little frill of kale should be visible below the strawberries.
• Just before serving, wave a kitchen propane torch near the marshmallows until toasted to a golden brown.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat grill to medium-low (250° to 300°F). Place 8 cookies, bottom side up, on outer edge of grill rack; top each with 3 candy bar rectangles. Grill several minutes, just until chocolate begins to soften. Remove from grill and set aside. 2. Meanwhile, thread strawberries onto 2 skewers.* Thread marshmallows onto separate skewers. Place skewers on grill. Grill until strawberries begin to soften and marshmallows are golden and puffy. 3. Remove skewers from grill. Remove strawberries from skewers; cut in half and place on candy on cookie. Top with 1 toasted marshmallow and another cookie. Serve immediately.
