This unique dessert uses peach halves that are "speared" with cinnamon sticks. Raspberry sorbet fills shortcake cups, and a grilled peach half and almonds are placed on top of each.
 

Ingredients

  • 4 cinnamon sticks that have been soaked in water 30 minutes
  • 2 medium peaches, peeled, pitted and halved
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 cups raspberry sorbet
  • 4 sponge shortcake cups
  • 1/4 cup toasted slivered almonds
 
Method

Preheat grill to medium-high. Push one soaked cinnamon stick through each peach half. Brush peaches with butter. Grill, cut side down, 3-4 minutes. Turn and fill cavity with brown sugar. Grill additional 3-4 minutes. Spoon sorbet into shortcakes. Top with grilled peach and almonds.

 

Notes: Oh my...my family goes crazy over this dessert. This is the dessert that always follows grilled pork tenderloin at my house.
