Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm - this is a quick and yummy dessert to enjoy this time of year!
I think I have already mentioned that winter is citrus season here in Texas and thanks to our neighbors, we have a bumper crop to enjoy all season long. And this recipe is as easy as 1-2-3!
1. Slice your grapefruit in half crosswise.
2. Spread a generous amount of brown sugar across the top.
3. Carmelize the sugar using either a small kitchen torch (LOVE mine!) or your broiler!
The only thing left to do now is enjoy!
This amazingly simple sweet is good on it's own, or try it with a small scoop of vanilla bean ice cream for a truly decadent dessert! You can even convert non-grapefruit lovers with this tasty treat!
It is Just. That. Good.
Wow! I had no idea how to make these...... Looks kinda dangerous....

SO funny! If you're put off by the kitchen torch, use your broiler instead. It works just as well - Cheers!
DeleteOhhh....I got one of those torches for Christmas! I need to get it out!
