Everything is just PEACHY today! Planning on grilling this weekend? Throw some peaches on the grill and add dark chocolate in the cavities. Peaches and chocolate -- a great combination of flavors.
Want to experiment? Choose different varieties of peaches and chocolate from different chocolate makers and with different amounts of cacao.
If you'd like a specific recipe for Grilled Peaches with Dark Chocolate, try this one from Epicurious for Grilled Brown-Sugar Peaches with White Chocolate. It's a great recipe, too, and I love it with the toasted pistachios and white chocolate. I don't like pistachios with the dark chocolate and peaches, though, but let me know what you think if you add the pistachios. It's a matter of taste. I love all the peach varieties.
Grilled Peaches with Dark Chocolate
Ingredients
3 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
2 Tbsp dark brown sugar
4 unpeeled peaches, halved, pitted
1/3 cup finely chopped dark chocolate (I like 70% cacao)
Directions
Get barbecue to medium-high heat. We use a Weber, so judge accordingly when you think it's hot. Make sure the grates are clean. Brush the grate with a tiny bit of oil right before the peaches go on.
Blend butter and sugar in large bowl. Add peach halves; toss to coat.
Place peaches, cut side down, on grill. Grill about a minute until slightly charred.
Turn peaches over (use tongs).
Divide chopped dark chocolate among peach cavities.
Drizzle remaining butter/sugar mixture from bowl over chocolate.
Grill until chocolate just begins to melt and peaches are charred, about 2 minutes.
Remove carefully from grill, plate, and serve.
