Barbecue season: Amazing desserts that benefit from the lick of a flame via IrishTimesFood

It is barbecue season and the use of your grill doesn’t need to be restricted to savoury dishes. There are also some amazing desserts that benefit from the lick of a flame. Chunky rounds of pineapple are delicious when charred on the barbecue. Drizzle them with a brown sugar rum syrup and top with vanilla ice cream for a tropical ending to your next outdoor feast.
My kids love to make their own chocolate stuffed bananas. Simply cut a banana skin lengthways and insert chocolate buttons into the opening, before wrapping the banana snugly in foil. Place on the barbecue to cook for 10 minutes. Fruit skewers are another option. Thread whole strawberries and chunks of pineapple and mango on to skewers.
Another favourite dessert to make on the barbecue is the S’more. Place digestive biscuits on the grill with a square of chocolate on top. Meanwhile pop the marshmallows on to a skewer and hold over the heat as you would a campfire. Once the marshmallow is toasted, place it between the biscuits and serve.
A semifreddo is the easiest home-made ice cream to make. There’s no special equipment needed and very few ingredients. It’s like a home-made Viennetta, only nicer, and you’re in control of the quality of the ingredients. Save this for those warm summer days. It will last a month in the freezer, so you can slice off a piece whenever the sun shines.
