slices
pound cake
2
whole
Kiwi
peeled and chunked
1
cup
pineapple chunks
drained
1
oz
white chocolate
Instructions
Slice pound cake into nine equal cubes per slice.
3 slices pound cake
Peel kiwi, remove ends, and cut into small chunks.
2 whole Kiwi
Thread pineapple, kiwi, and pound cake cubes onto skewers twice in that order.
1 cup pineapple chunks
Place skewers onto a wax-paper-lined flat surface.
Microwave white chocolate in a small bowl for 30 seconds at 50% power. Stir and microwave another 15 seconds until smooth.
1 oz white chocolate
Spoon chocolate into a resealable bag, snip a small corner, and drizzle over the skewers.
Allow chocolate to harden. Loosely cover and refrigerate or serve immediately.
Notes
Use bakery pre-sliced pound cake for convenience.
Trim skewers to about 7 inches for easier serving.
Fresh pineapple works great in place of canned.
Swap white chocolate drizzle with milk or dark chocolate for variety.
