Nothing gets my mouth watering in the summer like a good old fashioned BBQ. The charred flavour grilling adds to meat makes my mouth water when I think about it. And dessert! Nothing beats fresh fruit on the BBQ in the summer. The grill softens and sweetens the fruit so it just melts in your mouth.
This delicious grilled shortcake kabob with strawberry cheesecake dip recipe is the perfect recipe for a summer BBQ, something everyone will love. The skewers are quick and easy to make and the cheesecake dip is seriously out of this world. Who doesn't love cheesecake?
This recipe calls for sweetened condensed milk, so naturally I reached for Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk, a favourite ingredient I love to use in my recipes because of the smooth and delicious texture it adds to desserts.
Whether you're having backyard BBQ fun with your kids, enjoying a weekend away with family at the cottage or camping with friends this dessert is sure to please. Enjoy!
