§  Total Time: 20 minutes

§  Yield: 6-8 servings

Ingredients

For the chocolate cream dip:

§  1 cup raw cashews, soaked*

§  3 tablespoons cocoa powder

§  2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

§  1/2 cup non-dairy milk

§ 

10.5pt;">1 teaspoon vanilla extract

§  1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

For the fruit kebabs:

§  6-8 wooden skewers

§  8 ounces fresh pineapple chunks

§  1 pint strawberries

§  8 ounces green grapes

§  1 pint fresh blueberries

Instructions

1.       To make the chocolate cream dip, drain and rinse the cashews, and then place them into a high speed blender (or NutriBullet) with the cocoa powder, maple syrup, milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Blend on high until thick and creamy. Add more milk (one tablespoon at a time) as needed to thin. Add more syrup as desired to sweeten. Transfer the chocolate cream to a bowl and refrigerate while you assemble the kebabs.

2.       To make the kebabs, thread 1 pineapple chunk, 1 strawberry, 1 grape and 1 blueberry onto each skewer. Repeat this step until each skewer is full. Serve chilled with chocolate dip.

Notes         

*Soak cashews in a large bowl covered with several inches of water for at least 6 hours or up to overnight. For a faster option, bring a pot of water to a boil, remove from the heat then add the cashews and allow to soak for 30 minutes.
