Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 lg Pineapple, ripe 1/3 c Light brown sugar (packed)
- ends trimmed, 1 pn Salt
- skin and eyes removed 4 tb Unsalted butter; melted
1 c Coarsely chopped macadamias

Preheat the broiler. Cut the pineapple into 8 slices, each about 1
inch thick. For a decorative presentation you might want to cut
notched grooves 1 inch apart on the top of each slice to suggest the
grooves in a scallop shell.

In a small bowl, combine the nuts, brown sugar and salt. Add the
butter and stir until well-blended.

Place the pineapple slices on a baking sheet lined with foil.
Sprinkle with a few tablespoons of the nut mixture or arrange in a
graphic pattern over each pineapple slice.

Broil the pineapple slices about 6 inches from the heat until the
filling starts to carmelize, about 1-1/2 minutes. Serve hot.
