barbecue (medium-high heat). Lightly brush the grill pan or rack with oil. Place
the peaches on the grill pan and do not move the peaches, otherwise you will not
have those great grill marks. It takes about 2 to 3 minutes per side to get those
grill marks. Grill the peaches until the grill marks are formed, slightly softened
and heated through, about 5 to 6 minutes total.

Meanwhile, stir the sugar, brandy, and lemon juice in a medium bowl to blend. Set
the brandy mixture aside.

As the peaches are ready, remove them from the grill and place them in a shallow
baking dish. Top them with the brandy mixture, and toss to coat. Set aside for 15
minutes and allow to marinate, tossing occasionally.

Meanwhile, stir the mascarpone and vanilla in a small bowl to blend.
