Grilled pineapple ice cream sundaes are a delicious way to celebrate summer. Sweet bourbon-soaked pineapple, buttery angel food cake and mounds of vanilla ice cream come together in this irresistible no-bake dessert. Set out a pineapple ice cream sundae station at your next barbecue!  We’re grilling everything this summer, dessert included. From the caramelized sugars of the pineapple to the perfectly toasted angel food cake, grilling imparts a sweet and smoky flavor on this addictive warm-weather treat. We stacked grilled angel food cake with caramelized grilled pineapple and a few scoops of cool and creamy vanilla ice cream, then topped it all with a drizzle of caramel sauce and a Maraschino cherry. A perfect tropical summer sundae!
