Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons dark rum
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups cubed fresh pineapple
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
1/4 cup sweetened coconut flakes
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, chilled
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
Splash of vanilla extract
4 scoops vanilla ice cream

Steps:

For the pineapple: Mix together the rum, brown sugar and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Add the pineapple and toss until well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
For the coconut garnish: In a dry saute pan over medium-low heat, toast the coconut flakes until light golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Set aside.
Set a saute pan over medium heat. Add the butter and marinated pineapple, bring to a simmer and simmer until thickened, about 10 minutes.
For the whipped cream: Just before serving, whip the cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract until lightly thickened.
Divide the pineapple between 2 bowls, spooning over the extra sauce. Top each bowl with half of the ice cream, whipped cream and toasted coconut.
