Brown Sugar Broiled Grapefruit

DSC_0044_round_text

Summer desserts are so simple – a handful of fresh berries from the farmer’s market is usually all it takes to satisfy my sweet tooth.  On the other hand, winter fruits are harder to so readily consume, therefore winter desserts are usually heartier and more time consuming to create.

But sometimes I want a dessert on a blustery winter’s night that feels just as simple as reaching for that handful of summer berries.  Pink grapefruit is one of my favorite fruits, a bright, fresh taste and smell to cheer up the long winter months.  Sprinkling just a bit of brown sugar on top and then placing under the broiler yields a delicious, warming dessert in less than five minutes.
