My husband grills anything and everything—even dessert! With his gentle nudging, I came up with this simple recipe that takes just a few minutes to prepare, yet always impresses dinner guests. —Anita Archibald, Richmond Hill, Ontario

Ingredients

  • 8 slices angel food cake (1-1/2 inches thick)
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened

  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1/2 cup sliced fresh strawberries
  • 1/4 cup mixed nuts, coarsely chopped
  • Confectioners' sugar

Directions

  • 1. Using a 1-1/2-in. round cookie cutter, cut out the centers of half of the cake slices (discard removed cake or save for another use). Spread butter over both sides of cake slices. Grill, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from heat 1-2 minutes on each side or until toasted.
  • 2. In a small bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add extract; beat until soft peaks form.
