Grilled Peaches (serves 4)

4 freestone firm ripe peaches
1-2 Tablespoons butter.

Cut peaches in half. Melt butter on grill pan. When butter stops bubbling, place peaches cut side down on grill. Grill for 2-3 minutes, then make a one quarter turn and grill for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from pan.

Raspeberry Sauce

2 pints of fresh or frozen raspberries
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam

Place 1 pint of raspberries in a small saucepan along with sugar and raspberry jam. Heat on medium low until sugar dissolves and sauce is bubbling. Cook for 5 minutes. Turn heat off and add in the remaining 1 pint of raspberries. Stir to distribute. Allow to come to room temperature before using.

Almond Creme Anglaise

2 cups of heavy cream
3 large eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup good quality almond liquor

In a medium saucepan, heat heavy cream just until bubbles start forming around the edge of the cream. Do not allow to boil. In the mean time, using the whisk attachment of a stand mixer, whisk eggs and sugar until the mixture is light and airy and sugar is completely dissolved. With mixer on the lowest speed, slowly pour in the warm cream and mix for 30 seconds. Return the mixture to the saucepan and over medium heat stir the creme anglaise until thick and the mixture covers the back of a wooden spoon. Do not bring to a boil or you will have scrambled eggs! Turn off heat and add in the almond liquor. Stir to evenly distribute. Pour into a container and refrigerate until ready to use.
