Grilled Pineapple Pound Cake image

Provided by Christa Arwood

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 whole peeled and cored pineapple; cut into slices
1 premade frozen pound cake (thawed and sliced)
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
TOP WITH
scoop of vanilla ice cream
drizzle of caramel sauce

Steps:

1. Slice pineapple into 1 - 1/2 inch slices. Coat each slice with oil and rub it in.
2. Sprinkle with brown sugar.
3. Slice pound cake into 2-inch slices. I try to get as many pound cake slices as I have pineapple slices. Sometimes there is more of one and less of another... just eyeball it.
4. Place pineapple slices on hot grill and allow sugar to caramelize on them. When grill marks are formed, flip and cook the other side. This usually takes only one to two minutes. It's a quick process.
5. Place cake slices on grill and toast. Get grill marks on them. Flipping to do both sides. This shouldn't take more than one to two minutes per side.
6. Serve with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce (I use ice cream topping, but you could make your own caramel if you have the time).
