Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Last week, I wrote about Andreea's fabulous grilled chocolate-stuffed bananas. I haven't had a chance to try them out yet (I spent all my weekend dessert energy on a batch of oatmeal pecan chocolate chip cookies) but Flickr user/blogger Another Pint Please... (aka Mike), the most prolific griller in the Slashfood Flickr pool, saw the post and took on the challenge of grilling up some chocolate-stuffed bananas.
Judging from Mike's results, it looks like this recipe/technique is a true winner. He served his with a side of vanilla ice cream and says that it was very much like an inside out banana split. He's got plans for fancying it up the next time around, using better chocolate and topping it with a sprinkle of toasted nuts. The picture above is the before shot, click here to see the banana after it's been on the grill for a while.
Anyone else try these out yet?

Used Baker's chocolate and Nestle Toll House. Ice cream would have made a nice addition, but wasn't sure how best to add it to the dish. Ideally, a way to serve with the ice cream inside without melting... hmmm..
