Grilled Banana Split

Here's a fun one to try:
(6 servings)

6 firm ripe bananas, peeled and cut in half lengthwise
3 T. melted butter
3 cups ice cream: French vanilla, dark or white chocolate, cherry vanilla, and/or praline
2 cups sauce: chocolate, cherry and/or butterscotch
1 cup whipped cream
1/2 cup coarsely chopped toasted almonds
6 brandied or maraschino cherries (optional*)

Preheat a gas grill to low. If you are using a charcoal grill, build a fire and let it burn down until the coals have a heavy coating of white ash. Spread the coals in an even bed. Clean the cooking grate. Brush the bananas with the melted butter and place on the grill. Grill them until lightly marked, about one minute. Turn them carefully and grill on the second side until lightly marked and hot, one minute more. Place 2 banana halves on each serving plate or bowl. Top each with 3 small scoops of the ice cream and spoon the sauces over. Garnish with whipped cream, toasted almonds and cherries.
