Rocky Road Grilled Banana Splits Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Place each banana on a 12 inch square of foil, crimp and shape foil around bananas so they sit flat. Cut each banana lengthwise about 1/2 inch deep, leaving 1/2 inch uncut at both ends. Gently pull each banana peel open, forming a pocket. Finely chop half of the candy bar. Fill pockets with chopped chocolate and 1/2 C. marshmallows. Grill the bananas, covered, over medium heat for 8-10 minutes or until marshmallows are melted and golden brown. Transfer bananas to serving plates, top with scoops of ice cream. Break remaining chocolate into pieces. Sprinkle choc. pieces and remaining marshmallows over tops. Garnish with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Cut a small piece off the curved side of 4 unpeeled bananas so they'll sit level, then make a deep slit down the center of each through the peel; place on separate sheets of foil. Open the slits and brush the inside of each banana with melted butter, then sprinkle with sugar and 1 ounce chopped semisweet chocolate; fold up the foil. Grill the packets over high heat until the chocolate melts, 6 to 8 minutes (don't worry if the peel turns brown). Open the peels and top the bananas with ice cream, whipped cream, sprinkles and a cherry.

Steps:

• Heat a grill or grill pan to high heat. Place a metal baking sheet in the freezer to chill.
• Put the waffle cones in a large resealable bag or food processor. Crush the cones until ground to the texture of coarse sand. Put the crushed cones in a large bowl, add 10 tablespoons of the melted butter and mix until well combined. Transfer the mixture to a 9-inch pie dish and press to form a crust. Place in the freezer to set, about 30 minutes.
• Slice the unpeeled bananas in half lengthwise (keep the peels on). Brush the cut sides with the remaining 2 tablespoons melted butter. Sprinkle each with brown sugar, then grill until grill-marked, 3 to 5 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, then peel and slice into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
• Beat the heavy cream with the confectioners' sugar and vanilla in a chilled large metal bowl until it holds medium-stiff peaks. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Using a small ice cream scoop (about the size of a golf ball), scoop out 4 scoops of each flavor from the Neapolitan ice cream and place on the chilled baking sheet. Return to the freezer. Let the remaining ice cream soften up a little, 5 to 10 minutes at room temperature.
• Using a microwave or a bowl of hot water, slightly warm 1/2 cup of fudge sauce until pourable. Remove the crust from the freezer and spread the fudge on the bottom of the crust, using a spoon or an offset spatula to evenly distribute. Arrange the banana slices in a single layer on top of the fudge layer, pressing gently to adhere the bananas to the fudge. Scoop out the softened ice cream (all 3 flavors) on top of the bananas and, using a large spoon or an offset spatula, spread to cover the bananas, being sure to make the top as smooth as possible.
• Place the small scoops of ice cream around the outside of the pie, alternating flavors, to create a border. Pipe the center of the pie with stars of whipped cream in a concentric circle, with one large star in the middle. Place in the freezer until the ice cream firms up, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
• To serve: Arrange 6 of the cherries on top of the pie, one between every other ice cream scoop. Place the walnuts in between the remaining ice cream scoops. Warm the remaining fudge sauce and drizzle all over the ice cream in concentric circles. Sprinkle the sprinkles around the border of the pie. Place the last remaining cherry in the center. Let sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Mix 1 tablespoon brown sugar with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Halve 4 bananas lengthwise; brush with 1 tablespoon melted butter and sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar. Wrap in foil and broil until golden, about 3 minutes. Top with frozen yogurt, toasted almonds and chopped chocolate and/or raspberries.

Steps:

• Place each banana on a 12-in. square of foil; crimp and shape foil around bananas so they sit flat., Cut each banana lengthwise about 1/2 in. deep, leaving 1/2 in. uncut at both ends. Gently pull each banana peel open, forming a pocket. Finely chop half of the candy bar. Fill pockets with chopped chocolate and 1/2 cup marshmallows., Grill bananas, covered, over medium heat for 8-10 minutes or until marshmallows are melted and golden brown. Transfer each banana to a serving plate; top with scoops of ice cream. Break remaining chocolate into pieces. Sprinkle chocolate pieces and remaining marshmallows over tops. Garnish with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Heat the grill to low. Make and incision lengthwise on the side of each banana, leaving 1 inch uncut at both ends and the skin intact. Spread open the cut and place 2 teaspoons of butter pieces, 1 tbs. brown sugar, and 1 teaspoons vanilla inside.
• Grill, covered, until the butter mixture has melted and bananas are heated through, 8 to 10 minutes. Move the bananas to 4 separate sundae dishes, carefully flipping the bananas over and pouring the sauce into the bottom of each dish.
• Peel off the skins, and top each with an equal amount of ice cream; add warm chocolate sauce, and nuts, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium heat.
• Mix the sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Sprinkle the bananas with sugar and cinnamon mixture. Put them, cut side down, on the grill and cook until grill marks appear, about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip over and cook until the peel just starts to pull away from the banana. Remove the bananas from the grill and peel. Add 2 banana halves to each banana split dish. Top with strawberry ice cream, candied pecans, whipped cream and hot fudge sauce. Put a cherry on top and garnish with a sprig of mint.

Steps:

• Place 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream into 2 separate serving dishes. Pour fudge sauce onto one scoop per dish; pour strawberry syrup over the other scoops.
• Cut banana into quarters. Place 1 quarter on both sides of each split. Sprinkle evenly with marshmallows and chopped walnuts.

Steps:

• Boil sugar and water together about 12 minutes; add strawberries, cook another minute and chill.
• Place 2 large scoops into each dish.
• If necessary, melt fudge until saucy. Pour fudge sauce onto one scoop per dish and the strawberry sauce on the others.
• Cut banana in half in both directions. Place half of each half on both sides of each split.
• Sprinkle mini marshmallows evenly onto the splits.
