This dessert treat uses fat-free vanilla frozen yogurt, but you could substitute vanilla ice cream if you prefer. The flavors of coconut and the carmelized pineapple create a delicious topping. This is best when fresh pineapple is used. Sometimes you can find already peeled and cored pineapple in the produce department. From Food & Wine.

SERVES 10 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 (2 lb) pineapple, peeled, cored and sliced into 1/2 inch rings
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
2 1/2 pints non-fat vanilla frozen yogurt (or vanilla ice cream)
mint sprig, for garnish (optional)

Directions

1
Light a grill.
2
Brush the pineapple rings with the oil.
3
Grill over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until the pineapple rings are lightly charred and softened, about 8 minutes.
4
Transfer the rings to a work surface to cut them into bite-size pieces.
5
In a medium skillet, toast the coconut over medium heat until golden, about 2 minutes.
6
Transfer the coconut to a plate to cool.
7
Scoop the frozen yogurt (or ice cream) into sundae glasses or bowls.
8
Top with the grilled pineapple, sprinkle with the toasted coconut, and garnish with mint sprigs (if using) and serve right away.
9
Enjoy!

This was a wonderful dessert. The adults enjoyed this, my DD, not so much. I used ice cream,which melted (see my pic) but it was still delicious. Made for ZWT5, for The Groovy Gastrognomes. Thanks so much for a wonderful, different option for dessert.
