But don't be fooled by this dessert, because it really is all about one ingredient, the balsamic vinegar. Whenever I make balsamic syrup, I keep it to myself as to what the ingredients are. I have yet to have anyone not love the rich and warm flavor, but it is rare they can ever put a finger on what it is. It is amazing how simple it is but what a complex flavor it provides. I love it over a bowl of strawberries or peaches. It is fantastic drizzled over pork loin as well. Try it!
GRILLED PINEAPPLE BANANA SPLITS
3 bananas, cut into big chunks
1 frozen pound cake-I know-pre fabbed!!, cut into chunks
1 pineapple, cleaned and cut into chunks
Bottle of maraschino cherries
8 Tablespoons butter, melted
Vanilla ice cream
1 cup Balsamic vinegar
¼ cup brown sugar
Skewers soaking in water
Alternate the banana, pineapple, and pound cake on a skewer, finishing it off with a cherry. Melt butter and brush evenly on the skewers. Meanwhile, in a skillet, combine brown sugar and vinegar and bring to a bubble over medium-high heat. Cook until the mixture sticks to the back of a spoon. Be careful not to cook too long, just about 4 minutes. Scoop a large ball of ice cream and put it in a bowl. Drizzle with the syrup and top off with a skewer.

4 eggs, beaten
2 ½ cups sugar
7 cups milk
3 cups whipping cream
2 ½ teaspoons vanilla
