THIS is a simple yet perfect ending to a meal for two on a summer's evening. Whenever I make this dessert, I'm reminded of my childhood, when my favorite treat at the soda fountain was a huge banana split. -Diane Hixon, Niceville, Florida
Ingredients:
1/4 cup flaked coconut
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1 can (8-1/2 ounces) sliced peaches, drained
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 small firm bananas, halved lengthwise
2 scoops each vanilla, chocolate and strawberry ice cream
4 maraschino cherries with stems
Directions:
1. In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown coconut in butter. Remove coconut with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add peaches, brown sugar and cinnamon to skillet; cook and stir over low heat for 8-10 minutes or until heated through. Meanwhile, place bananas in two shallow bowls. Top with ice cream. Spoon peach sauce over ice cream; sprinkle with toasted coconut. Garnish with cherries. Yield: 2 servings.
