Yummy pear dessert recipe with chocolate

Hi! I'm Eren Mckay and I would like to thank you for reading my blog. I provide helpful tips for families in their daily lives and educational resources for teachers.








  When making this recipe, it’s easier to organize the   ingredients into the two different parts to it:
  The main part and the sauce.

The Main Part Ingredients:


   • 4 firm pears
   • 1 piece of cinnamon stick (about 3 inches)
   • 2 cups of water
   • ¾ cup of sugar
   • 2 tablespoons of lemon juice

The Sauce Ingredients:


   • 1 oz unsweetened chocolate
   • ½ cup of sugar
   • 2 tablespoons butter
   • 1 teaspoon of almond extract
   • ¼ cup of cream (half and half)


Instructions for the main part:


  ♥ Pour the 2 cups of water and the 2 tablespoons of lemon
  juice into a casserole dish.
  (Make sure that the dish is microwave safe and the ideal size
  would be a two quarts.)
  Now add ¾ cup of sugar and 1 piece of cinnamon stick. Put
  it in the microwave for 4 minutes on high.


  ♥ While that is in the microwave you can peel the pears and
  cut off the bottoms of each pear so that they will stand up.
  Leave the stems on. Place the pears in the casserole dish
  with syrup that had just been done and microwave
  for 5 minutes.
  Then turn the pears over and microwave for 5 more minutes.
  Chill for at least 2 hours or overnight.


Instructions for the Sauce:


  ♥ Combine ¼ cup of half an half cream and ½ a cup of sugar
  in a medium sized bowl. Microwave for 1 minute then give
  it a quick stir. Then add the 1 oz unsweetened chocolate and
  microwave for another 30 seconds. Then stir until the   chocolate has completely melted. Then add the 1 teaspoon
  of the almond extract and 2 tablespoons butter and heat it
  all for another 30 seconds. After that, stir until melted.


Putting It All Together:


  On each dessert plate put 2 tablespoons of chocolate sauce.
  Top with a pear and pour another tablespoon of the
  sauce on top.
  Serve your guests. They will love it ♥

    Sounds scrumptious. Can you substitute tinned pears when they’re out of season or is that too much to ask?

  4. Jim Hardin  

    Sounds like a great recipe. I might just have to try it. Kinda gives me ideas for a blog recipe :)

    Hi Eren,
    Just popped in from Jim’s Blogging Tips & Tricks (recipe site:)

    It just so happens I have one lonely pear sitting on the counter waiting for a “sugar bath.” I just may stick it in the micro and see what happens. Thanks so much for sharing…

    What a FUN site you have. I don’t have time to browse right now but…Bookmarked!!!

    I knew it was going to be a great recipe just from the title.

  7. Eren Mckay  

    Hey Sire,
    I’ve never tried substituting for tinned pears – but hey you can try it and tell me how it works out (whether it was yummy or not so much- LOL) :-D

    Hi Jim,
    Would love to see what you could cook up with pears and chocolate for a blog recipe- sounds like it would be interesting ;-) Thanks for coming by.

    Hi Louise,
    Isn’t that a coincidence that you would have a pear just waiting to make this recipe? Awesome. Thanks for the compliments. I try to make it fun and happy here.
    Hope to see you here more.

    Hey Maria,
    It sure is yummy. Hope your family enjoys it.

    All the best ♥,
    Eren

    Hi Sire,
    I’m sure she’ll do a good job- because you know that women rock and should rule the world LOL ;-)
    By the way, I’d like you to show your wife the post where I put together 20 beautiful free online printable calendars. I think she’ll like it.
    Blessings,
    Eren

    Hi Eren,
    I wound up eating the pear and made banana cookies instead. Perhaps, next time:)

    Eren,
    Sounds delicious, yum!
    My mother makes cooked apples with a dry fruit and cinammon and port stuffing.
    I’ll give this a whirl sometime.
    Thanks so much!
    Very inspirational as always.
