Grilled Pineapple Dessert

By Derrick Riches, About.com Guide

This is a fantastic dessert recipe that is also very fast. You might want the pineapple slices to flare-up the second they hit the grill and while everyone is close by. This really impresses the guests. You can substitute rum for the tequila if you are so inclined.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 large pineapple, peeled, cored and cut into 1 inch thick slices
  • 3/4 cup tequila
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • vanilla ice cream

Preparation:

Mix tequila, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon together until sugar is dissolved. Preheat Grill. Place pineapple on grill (You could put the pieces on skewers to make grilling easier). Baste with tequila mixture while grilling. Turn occasionally. Grill about 10 minutes. Serve hot topped with a scoop of ice cream.
