INGREDIENTS
| 2 | medium mangoes, peeled, seeded and chopped |
| 2 | ripe, firm bananas, cut into 3/4-inch-thick slices |
| 8 | maraschino cherries, halved |
| 4 | sheets (18 X12 inches each) heavy-duty foil |
| 1/2 | cup firmly packed brown sugar |
| 2 | tablespoons rum or 2 tablespoons orange juice plus 1/4 teaspoon rum extract |
| 1/2 | teaspoon ground cinnamon |
| Vanilla ice cream | |
PREPARATION:
- Prepare grill for direct cooking.
- Place mango, banana and cherries in center of each piece of foil. Stir together brown sugar, rum and cinnamon in small bowl. Spoon brown sugar mixture over fruit mixture.
- Double-fold sides and ends of foil to seal packets, leaving head space for heat circulation. Place on baking sheet.
- Slide packets off baking sheet onto grill grid. Grill, covered, over medium-high coals 3 to 5 minutes or until hot. Carefully open one end of each packet to allow steam to escape.
