If you like peanut butter and chocolate together, you’ll go gaga for these insanely easy dessert kabobs!
Peanut butter and chocolate are one of those combos that aren’t just inspired, they’re nigh unto mortal perfection. It’s like Zeus and Athena came together to create the heavenliest of flavors — there’s just a little touch of lightning that strikes when you combine creamy peanut butter and rich chocolate.
Speaking of lightning, check out what happens when a wooden skewer strikes this peanut butter cookie and brownie concoction like a bolt of sheer inspiration. These Peanut Butter Cookie and Brownie Dessert Kabobs are about as good as life gets!
Pulling together this eye-catching dessert is absurdly simple. Just buy a package of Pillsbury Peanut Butter cookie dough, slice it up into cookie rounds, and then cut each of those slices into four. Now roll those pieces into small balls and coat them in finely crushed peanuts. Transfer to a baking sheet and cook until golden brown.
Sandwich the tiny peanut butter cookies with Betty Crocker fudge frosting in the middle. Skewer them onto a bamboo skewer with Pillsbury Brownie Bites in between. Yep. It’s happening. The skies have opened.
But it gets even better. Melt together chocolate chips and peanut butter, creating a creamy drizzle. Drizzle on top of your skewered cookies and brownie bites.
Allow the drizzle to harden before serving. Then…SERVE, baby. Serve! Aphrodite, in all of her appreciation for glorious beauty would be so proud.
