Steps:

  • Cut a small piece off the curved side of 4 unpeeled bananas so they'll sit level, then make a deep slit down the center of each through the peel; place on separate sheets of foil. Open the slits and brush the inside of each banana with melted butter, then sprinkle with sugar and 1 ounce chopped semisweet chocolate; fold up the foil. Grill the packets over high heat until the chocolate melts, 6 to 8 minutes (don't worry if the peel turns brown). Open the peels and top the bananas with ice cream, whipped cream, sprinkles and a cherry.

A great ending to a lovely summer barbecue! Adapted from Country Living magazine. The original recipe called for brandy, but I have subbed vanilla.

Provided by Sharon123

Categories     Dessert

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 ripe bananas, splits
8 teaspoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
4 tablespoons light brown sugar
4 teaspoons vanilla (or try coconut extract, rum extract, or lemon extract!Or use brandy)
3 cups vanilla ice cream
8 teaspoons chocolate syrup
1/4 cup toasted pecans (or your choice of nuts) (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the grill to low. Make and incision lengthwise on the side of each banana, leaving 1 inch uncut at both ends and the skin intact. Spread open the cut and place 2 teaspoons of butter pieces, 1 tbs. brown sugar, and 1 teaspoons vanilla inside.
  • Grill, covered, until the butter mixture has melted and bananas are heated through, 8 to 10 minutes. Move the bananas to 4 separate sundae dishes, carefully flipping the bananas over and pouring the sauce into the bottom of each dish.
  • Peel off the skins, and top each with an equal amount of ice cream; add warm chocolate sauce, and nuts, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Tips:

  • For the Rocky Road Grilled Banana Split, ensure your grill is preheated to medium-high heat before cooking the bananas and marshmallows. This will help create a nice caramelized exterior while keeping the inside gooey and soft.
  • When grilling the banana, place it cut side down on the grill grates. This will allow the natural sugars in the banana to caramelize and create a delicious crust.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can also make this recipe in a grill pan over medium heat. Just be sure to grease the pan lightly with oil to prevent sticking.
  • For the chocolate sauce, use a high-quality dark chocolate for the best flavor. You can also use semisweet chocolate if you prefer a sweeter sauce.
  • Feel free to customize your banana split with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include nuts, whipped cream, sprinkles, and cherries.

Conclusion:

The Rocky Road Grilled Banana Split is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
