Grilled Peaches With A Chunk Of Bittersweet Chocolate

Serves 6

2 tablespoons Butter -- melted
6 ripe Peaches -- halved and pitted
6 1/2 ounces Bittersweet chocolate -- broken into 1/2oz pieces
-- Your favorite Ice Cream -- Optional

Cut the peaches in half and remove the pit. Place the unpeeled peach halves, flesh side
down on a grill pan. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until peaches begin to brown slightly.
This will give you some pretty grill marks on the peaches. Put the peaches, flesh side
up in an ovenproof dish. Place a 1/2 ounce chunk of chocolate in the well of each peach
half. Using a pastry brush, coat the peaches with the melted butter. Roast in 450F oven
for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the peaches are soft and tender all the way through and
the chocolate is oozy. To serve, place 2 peach halves in a shallow bowl and serve with
a scoop of your favorite ice cream.

Recipe Notes

Every cookbook needs a really simple elegant dessert. I think this
qualifies on both counts.
