Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons dark rum
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 small pineapple, peeled, cored, and sliced
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 1 store-bought poundcake, cut into 1/2-inch thick slices
- Vanilla ice cream, for serving
- Maraschino cherries, for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Prep the Arteflame Grill: Heat your grill to operating temperature.
- Make the Rum Caramel Sauce: In a small saucepan on the grill, melt butter over high heat. Add brown sugar and rum, whisking until the sugar melts and the mixture is smooth. Whisk in the heavy cream and cook until the sauce is heated through and slightly thickened. Transfer the sauce to a bowl.
- Grill the Pineapple: Brush pineapple slices with canola oil. Grill until golden brown and caramelized, about 6 minutes per side. Remove from the grill, stack slices, and cut into chunks.
- Grill the Poundcake: Place poundcake slices on the grill. Grill until lightly golden brown, about 20 seconds per side.
- Assemble the Dessert: On each plate, layer a slice of grilled poundcake, topped with grilled pineapple chunks. Drizzle generously with the rum caramel sauce. Add another layer of poundcake, if desired, and top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Garnish with a maraschino cherry for an extra touch of sweetness and color.
