Spiced and Grilled Peaches with Vanilla Coconut Sorbet (Core Plan)
Oh my! Oh my my my!
A few weeks ago, I announced at work that I wanted to make a dessert with peaches, ginger and cinnamon. To this my boss replied, "Who are they, you're friends?" -Sigh!***
I didn't decide to add cardamom until I bought a bag of the fragrant spice a week later. This may be the best recipe idea I will have for a year so I wanted to save it for an epic vacation dessert. Yes, I needed to savor it in the perfect setting.
And so...I made this recipe last week on my vacation. It was heavenly and decadent! And do you think I wrote down one single thing I did? Ummm... NO! So tonight, I got a redo.
This is my new favorite dessert. I love it with all of my heart. It's my edible solace at the end of a long day. The hot peaches are a perfect match for the cold sorbet...making it a sweet melty concoction that is...well, just irresistible. You can make it in minutes if you have a fast ice-cream maker. If not you can make the sorbet in any ice cream maker in advance.
