Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 x 385g can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup cream (whipping/heavy)
1/3 cup cocoa powder (sifted)
1 tablespoon butter
150 g milk chocolate (broken into pieces)
4 bananas (halved lengthwise, skins kept on)
2 tablespoons soft brown sugar
vanilla ice cream
whipped cream
cherries
fresh strawberries

Steps:

  • To make the hot fudge sauce, combine all the ingredients in a small saucepan and melt together. Remove from the heat before it reaches boiling point and set aside.
  • Braai the bananas over medium-hot coals until they start to soften. The sugar will burn quickly so keep a close eye on them.
  • When the bananas are grilled, serve with scoops of vanilla ice cream and whipped cream, drizzle with the hot fudge and add the strawberries and cherries.

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

Time 42m

Yield 8 to 10 sundaes

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 to 3 bananas
1 frozen pound cake, thawed
1 whole pineapple
About 10 maraschino cherries
1/2 stick butter, melted
1 pint heavy cream
9 ounces good-quality semisweet chocolate, chopped
Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill.
  • Peel and cut the bananas into 1/2-inch thick slices. Trim the top off the pound cake and cut the rest into the same size squares as the banana chunks. Cut the top and bottom off the pineapple and remove the rind from around the sides. Cut the pineapple in half and then into quarters. Trim the core and cut each piece again lengthwise. Cut the strips into 1/2-inch thick pieces. On a wooden skewer, alternate pieces of banana, pound cake, and pineapple until the skewer is full, leaving about 2 inches for a handle. You should have 8 to 10 skewers. Finish with a cherry. Brush with melted butter and grill for 1 to 2 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, you can broil the skewers for about 1 to 2 minutes per side.)
  • Sauce:
  • Meanwhile, heat the cream in a small pan over medium heat; do not let it boil. Add the chocolate to the warm cream. Let sit for a few minutes, then stir the mixture to melt all the chocolate. Cool for a few minutes and pour into a squeeze bottle.
  • Scoop ice cream into bowls and top with a skewer. Squeeze some chocolate sauce over top and serve.

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.
