Simple, healthy, and lovely dessert from Top Tour of Spain site posted for ZWT5. Amounts for brown sugar were vague so I guessed at what they meant. What does little brown sugar or 1 glass of single cream mean? If someone else can clarify especially the cream amount, zmail me. Feel free to use whatever fruit you have on hand. Notice how you can grill it outside or under your broiler. No time was given for how long to grill it so think it might be 2 minutes?

This was a wonderful breakfast this morning. Would also be great as a dessert. I used banana, pears, apples, oranges and banana. I forgot to sprinkle them with brown sugar, but didn't miss it. I really enjoyed dipping the strawberries and bananas in the chocolate and liked the oranges and apples but didn't care for the pears with it. Thanks for sharing WiGal!! Made for ZWT Spain's kid friendly recipe.

    These were really tasty and a great change from plain fruit. That being said, the DH prefers his fruit cold. I will make these again, but only grill half of them :D Made for ZWT5.

    Hola and thanks for giving me a different and tasty treat for lunch yesterday. I followed the recipe apart from leaving out the single cream. I enjoyed it a great deal and in particular the mix of very healthy with just that little bit of naughty in the chocolate. I am of two minds of if I liked it better before or after heating but both were yummy. Made for Chow Hounds on ZWT5.
