Be sure to soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 20 minutes before starting. Or, if you know you're going to make these yummies for breakfast, loosely wrap the skewers in wet paper towels and put in a plastic bag overnight. They'll be ready when you pull out the dough. Ice cream toppings were SOOOOO much easier to drizzle right out of the bottle. GREAT for kid's sleepovers.

As good as this sounds, I can't get past the 850 calories and 44 Grams of fat per serving. I would make all the kids split one and give them each an inch or so. Plus this is not even a meal. It's a dessert or treat. Sorry, maybe there is a way to lighten this recipe.
