Grilled Banana Splits

Ingredients

• 4  bananas, unpeeled and halved lengthwise
• 4 tablespoon(s) butter, melted
• 1 pint(s) vanilla ice cream (or your favorite flavor)
• 1/2 cup(s) chocolate syrup
• 1  Butterfinger or Heath candy bar, chopped
• Whipped cream, for garnishing

1. Preheat grill. Brush cut sides of bananas with melted butter, then lay them (cut side down) on hot grill grate. Cook over medium-high heat until bananas are golden brown and grill marks show, about 2 minutes. Turn, skin side down; grill until tender, 2 more minutes. (If you don't have a grill, use a grill pan on the stove top.)
2. To assemble the sundaes, take the bananas out of their skins and arrange two halves in each of 4 bowls. Scoop some ice cream into each bowl. Drizzle with chocolate sauce and sprinkle with chopped candy. Garnish with whipped cream, if you wish.
