Fruit Kebabs with Chocolate Sauce
Servings: 4
Ingredients: 2 ripe bananas, peeled
6 slices pound cake (1/2 inch thick cut into 1 inch squares)
2 medium ripe nectarines or peaches
6 whole strawberries, stemmed
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 5-ounce can evaporated milk (2/3 cup)
2/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter or margarine
Preparation:
To prepare sauce, melt chocolate chips and butter or margarine over low heat in a small saucepan.
Add in the sugar and slowly add the evaporated milk. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat and stir for 8 minutes.
Remove and set aside. Remove seeds from peaches or nectarines and cut the fruit into wedges.
Slice the bananas and pound cake into 1-inch squares.
Thread the peaches or nectarines, cake, and bananas alternately onto six 12-inch-long skewers.
To each skewer add one strawberry.
Grill each kebab about 5 minutes or until cake is lightly browned, making sure to turn only once.
To serve, push contents from skewers onto dessert plates and lightly drizzle with warm chocolate sauce.
