Sautéed Pineapples in Dark Puerto Rican Rum and Coconut Flambé Sauce on Vanilla Ice CreamA desert to die for, sautéed pineapples infused in the famous Puerto Rican rum

Ingredients

  • 4 (3-inch) puff pastry rounds
  • ½ fresh pineapple, peeled and diced
  • 4 ounces cream of coconut
  • 4 ounces brown sugar
  • 7 ounces pineapple juice
  • 4 ounces toasted shredded coconut, plus extra for garnish
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 4 ounces dark Puerto Rican rum
  • Vanilla ice cream

Method

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.  Bake puff pastry rounds until golden brown, about 10 to 15 minutes.  When golden, remove and let cool.

Sautée pineapple with coconut cream, brown sugar, pineapple juice, coconut, and cinnamon sticks.  When pineapple caramelizes, remove from heat and carefully add the dark rum.  Return to the heat and carefully flambé.  Cook until the alcohol cooks off and the flames die out.  Remove from heat.

To assemble, in large serving bowl or cup, place puff pastry round first in the center.  Scoop out ice cream and place on the round.  Serve warm pineapple-rum sauce over ice cream.  Garnish with extra toasted coconut or with half cinnamon stick.
