Ingredients
- 12 fresh strawberries
- 1 cup marshmallow fluff
- Chocolate sauce (optional)
Instructions
- Step 1: Wash and dry strawberries completely. Stick each on a long skewer, then set aside.
- Step 2: In a medium heat-safe bowl, add marshmallow fluff. Microwave for 15 seconds until slightly softened, then stir to loosen it up.
- Step 3: Dip each strawberry in the softened marshmallow fluff, twisting to cover evenly.
- Step 4: Using a torch on its lowest setting, gently toast the marshmallow. Rotate the skewer while torching to avoid burning and ensure even caramelization.
- Step 5: Enjoy immediately, optionally drizzling with chocolate sauce for extra indulgence.
Tips & Variations
- Use fresh, firm strawberries for the best texture and flavor.
- If you don’t have a torch, briefly place the coated strawberries under a broiler, watching closely to prevent burning.
- Add a sprinkle of crushed graham crackers for a s’mores-inspired twist.
Storage
These strawberries are best enjoyed immediately to keep the toasted marshmallow soft and warm. If needed, store leftover un-toasted coated strawberries in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day, but toasted ones lose their texture quickly and are not recommended for storage.

FAQs
Can I use regular marshmallows instead of marshmallow fluff?
Marshmallow fluff is easier to coat evenly and toast. If using regular marshmallows, melt them carefully and handle quickly, but results may vary in texture.
What if I don’t have a kitchen torch?
You can toast the marshmallow topping under a preheated broiler for a few seconds. Watch carefully to avoid burning, rotating as needed to toast evenly.
