How to Make Caramelized Pineapple With Hot Chocolate Sauce
- Preheat your broiler or grill to high heat.
- Trim the top and bottom off the pineapple. Using a sharp knife, carefully remove the skin by slicing vertically from top to bottom.
- Cut the pineapple into quarters, then cut each quarter lengthwise into 3 wedges.
- Remove the woody core from each wedge. Arrange the pineapple wedges in a shallow dish.
- In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (double boiler), combine the chopped chocolate and rum (if using). Stir until melted and smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in the heavy cream. Add any accumulated pineapple juice from the dish.
- Keep the chocolate sauce warm until ready to serve. If it gets too thick, add a teaspoon of water to adjust the consistency.
- Thread the pineapple wedges onto the prepared skewers.
- Place the pineapple kebabs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
- Sprinkle the pineapple kebabs generously with brown sugar.
- Broil or grill the kebabs for 2-3 minutes per side, or until caramelized and slightly charred around the edges. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Remove from the broiler/grill and transfer to a serving plate.
- Serve immediately, allowing guests to dip the pineapple skewers into the warm hot chocolate sauce.
