Grilled Pineapple with Coconut Whipped Cream     

Ingredients:
COCONUT WHIPPED CREAM:
1 (13.5-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
2 tsp. powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

GRILLED PINEAPPLE:
1 medium-large pineapple
About 3 tsp. granulated sugar
1/2 lime

Preparation:
Place the can of coconut milk in refrigerator overnight.

Place the bowl of mixer and the whisk attachment in freezer for about 5 minutes to chill. Remove the can of coconut milk from refrigerator and immediately open it. Scoop out and transfer the solid portion to the chilled mixing bowl, separating it from the liquid portion. Start whisking on medium-high. As it begins to thicken and whip up, add the sugar and vanilla extract. Continue whisking until the mixture is fluffy and light. Cover bowl and refrigerate the coconut whipped cream until ready to use it.

Pre-heat grill to medium-high.

Trim off and discard the top and bottom portion of the pineapple. Slice the remaining pineapple core into 1-inch thick slices. Sprinkle about 1/4-1/2 tsp. sugar on each side of the pineapple slices. Then place on pre-heated grill, adding directly to the grill grates. Cook for about 3 minutes per side, or until caramelized in some places and start to soften.

Remove the pineapple slices and place them on a clean tray. Squeeze some fresh lime juice over the slices while are still warm. Serve with a dollop of the coconut whipped cream
