Instructions: Lightly brush cut sides of fruit with oil. Place on grill, cut-side down, and grill over medium heat until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn and grill until fruit is tender yet not mushy, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cut halves in half.

Toss cut-up fruit in bowl with sugar, anisette, orange liqueur and lemon juice. Cover and let stand at least 30 minutes for flavor to develop.

Lightly grill pound cake slices over medium-high heat until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes per side.

To serve, place cake slices on dessert plates and top each with small scoop ice cream. Spoon grilled fruit over top.

This recipe yields 12 servings.

Comments: Its best to leave the fruit unpeeled when youre grilling it to help hold the flesh together. Fruit can be grilled a day ahead, covered and refrigerated. Cake can be grilled several hours ahead.
