Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 can (8-ounce) crushed pineapple
  • 1 tbsp dark rum

Set up grill for direct cooking over medium heat. Oil grate when ready to start cooking.

Place bananas on hot oiled grill. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the skins are dark and bananas are warm turning once. Remove from grill.

Open bananas and put 2 halves into each of 4 banana split dishes or oblong bowls. Top each with 3 scoops of ice cream. Spoon pineapple sauce and Champion Chocolate Sauce over ice cream. Top with sliced strawberries whipped cream nut topping and cherries.

Indoor Method: Prepare Pineapple Sauce and bananas as directed. Preheat broiler. On a foil-lined baking sheet broil bananas 6 to 8 inches from the heat for 2 to 3 minutes turning once. Serve as directed.
