Categories     dessert

Time 25m

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped, or chocolate chips
1 stick unsalted butter, sliced
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 3/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons half-and-half
1 cup mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
1 store-bought pound cake, cut into 6 to 8 thick slices
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored and cut into wedges
Shredded coconut, toasted, and/or peanuts, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine the chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat at 50 percent power for 2 minutes; stir, then microwave at 30-second intervals until completely melted. Whisk in the cocoa and 1 3/4 cups sugar until smooth. Microwave the mixture on full power for 5 minutes, stopping to whisk occasionally. (Don't worry if the mixture looks grainy; continue to cook and whisk until smooth.) Add 1 cup half-and-half and microwave on full power until smooth and slightly fudgy, 2 minutes. Transfer to a thermos to keep warm.
  • Fold the remaining 2 tablespoons half-and-half and 2 tablespoons sugar into the mascarpone in a bowl; cover and refrigerate.

CARAMEL GRILLED PINEAPPLE SUNDAES



Caramel Grilled Pineapple Sundaes image

Okay, so I know that we really cheated on the sauce by using a jarred sauce, but this is exactly what we served to some guests for a last minute dessert after a meal of "Brats--Our Way" and grilled corn on the cob, and they loved it! For four adults and two small children, this really was just barely enough, and we could have probably eaten another pineapple. I noticed that most other pineapple recipes here involve marinating the pineapple or brushing it with something just before grilling. We've never tried that, but really enjoy the simple, fresh taste of the pineapple without other added ingredients. If you've never tried grilled pineapple, you owe it to your tastebuds to try one of the recipes for it here on the zaar!

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pineapple (fresh and ripe)
1 (10 ounce) jar caramel ice cream topping (You will have plenty left)
1 quart vanilla ice cream (also, you'll have some left)

Steps:

  • Peel, core, and slice pineapple into 3/4 inch to 1 inch thick rings. If your pineapple is already cored and sliced in a way that makes it impossible to cut into rings, just cut into big wedges. Pieces that are cut too small make it difficult to grill without losing pieces in the grill, as the pineapple will soften somewhat.
  • Grill on a lightly oiled BBQ grill grate over medium to high heat, turning once, until the pineapple has nice grill marks, is warm, and slightly softened. Time will vary depending on your grill, but your eyes and your nose will tell you when it's ready!
  • Warm caramel ice cream topping in microwave according to package directions.
  • Assemble sundaes by placing a portion of pineapple in the bottom of each bowl. Top with a large scoop of vanilla ice cream, end drizzle a large spoonful of warm caramel topping over the top, and serve immediately.
  • Enjoy the compliments from your guests.
  • Grin as they ooooh and aahhhh over what a genius you are! :).

Tips:

  • Choose ripe pineapples: Look for pineapples that are golden yellow in color and have a slightly sweet smell. Avoid pineapples that are green or have brown spots.
  • Grill the pineapple slices: This will caramelize the natural sugars in the pineapple and give it a smoky flavor. You can grill the pineapple slices on a grill pan, outdoor grill, or even in a toaster oven.
  • Use high-quality ice cream: The better the ice cream, the better the sundae will be. Look for ice cream that is made with fresh, natural ingredients.
  • Don't skimp on the toppings: The toppings are what really make the sundae special. Be generous with the whipped cream, maple syrup, and chopped nuts.
  • Serve immediately: Sundaes are best enjoyed immediately after they are made. The ice cream will start to melt if you wait too long.

Conclusion:

Grilled pineapple maple sundaes are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sundae that is sure to impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give grilled pineapple maple sundaes a try.
