4 Tablespoons brown sugar (1 Tablespoon for each grapefruit half)

1 Tablespoon butter

*topping of your choice (suggestions below)

*Toppings

Fresh strawberry

Fresh raspberry

Lemon curd

Slivered almond slices, lightly toasted

1/2 teaspoon of your favorite jam, jelly or marmalade

Robertson’s Golden Three Fruits Marmalade

Maraschino cherry, with 1/2 teaspoon of Maraschino cherry juice per half grapefruit

Instructions:

Use grapefruit that is at room temperature. If using grapefruit directly from refrigerator, allow extra broiling/microwave cooking time. Cut grapefruits into halves. With sharp paring knife, section halves by cutting along the membrane that forms the triangular-shaped pieces. Generously sprinkle brown sugar on tops. Dot with butter. Set on cookie sheet and place under the broiler until sugar is caramelized and the grapefruit is warm, approximately 2 to 3 minutes for broiling, 2 minutes for microwave preparation.
