Ingredients

• 4 ripe bananas
• 8 t unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
• 4 T light brown sugar
• 4 T brandy
• 3 c vanilla ice cream
• 8 t chocolate sauce
• 1/4 c roasted pecans

Directions

1. Heat grill to low.

2. Make an incision lengthwise on each banana, leaving one inch uncut at both ends and the skin intact.

3. Spread open the cut and place two tablespoons of the butter pieces, one tablespoon brown sugar, and one tablespoon brandy inside.

4. Grill, covered, until the butter mixture has melted and bananas are heated through — 8 to 10 minutes.

5. Transfer the bananas to four separate sundae dishes, carefully flipping the bananas over and pouring the sauce into the bottom of each dish.

6. Peel off the skins, and top each with an equal amount of ice cream; add warm chocolate sauce and nuts.

7. Serve immediately.
