    List of Ingredients




    3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
    3/4 cup Kahlua or other coffee-flavored liqueur, or use dark rum
    12 tablespoons (1-1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into tablespoons
    6 ripe bananas, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch thick rounds
    1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    Vanilla ice cream, for serving

    Recipe



    1. Build a charcoal fire in an outdoor grill and let burn until the coals are covered with white ash. Let the fire burn down to medium-hot (you should be able to hold your hand at grate level for 3 seconds.)

    2. Tear off six 12-inch squares of aluminum foil. Fold one foil square in half. On the bottom half, place 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons Kahlua, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1 banana. Sprinkle with 1/16 teaspoon cinnamon. Fold the foil over to form a packet, crimping the open edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. (The packets can be prepared up to 1 hour ahead, kept at room temperature.)

    3. Grill the packets until the sugar, Kahlua, and butter are boiling (open a packet to check), 5 to 7 minutes. Open the packets, pour over bowls of ice cream, and serve immediately.
