Ingredients
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
One 7-ounce container marshmallow creme
1 cup honey-roasted peanuts
Two 1.5-ounce milk chocolate bars, broken into pieces
1 quart strawberries, hulled and thoroughly dried
Directions
Special equipment:
6 to 8 sturdy wooden skewers- Build a campfire.
- Mix 1/4 cup of the peanut butter into the container of marshmallow creme until well-combined.
- Coarsely crush the honey-roasted peanuts in a resealable plastic bag using a heavy object like the back of a soup can or a cast-iron skillet, being careful not to puncture the bag. Open the bag and place it on a flat surface or plate.
- Add the remaining 1/4 cup peanut butter to a small heatproof bowl or pot and set it near the fire, stirring occasionally if needed, until just melted.
- Put the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl or pot and set it near the fire, stirring occasionally if needed, until just melted.
- Meanwhile, skewer a strawberry through the hull so it is firmly on the stick. Dip the strawberry into the marshmallow creme mixture, patting on the mixture to ensure it sticks (it does not have to be fully coated). Lightly roll in the honey-roasted peanuts. Hold over the fire and cook until the marshmallow mixture and peanuts are lightly charred in spots, about 30 seconds. Dip in the melted peanut butter or chocolate (or both!) and enjoy immediately while the strawberry bites are nice and warm. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
