Bring the convenience of outdoor cooking to dessert with toasted angel food cake sandwiches that hold melted chocolate and are served with grilled fruit. They're really delicious and easy.
Ingredients:
4 slices angel food cake (1 inch thick)
1 ounce bittersweet chocolate
1 medium firm banana, cut into fourths
8 pineapple chunks
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 medium kiwifruit, peeled and diced
8 fresh strawberries, sliced
Directions:
1. Cut a pocket in each slice of cake by cutting from one long side to within 1/2 in. of the opposite side. Insert a chocolate piece into each opening; set aside.
2. In a small bowl, toss the banana, pineapple and lemon juice; drain. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine sugar and cinnamon. Add banana and pineapple; toss to coat. Thread onto four 4-in. metal or soaked wooden skewers.
3. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Prepare grill for indirect heat using a drip pan. Place fruit over drip pan and grill over indirect medium heat for 4-6 minutes or until heated through, turning frequently.
4. Grill cake for 30-60 seconds on each side or until chocolate is melted. Remove fruit from skewers. Combine the kiwi, strawberries and grilled fruit; serve with cake slices. Yield: 4 servings.
