Flambeed Vanilla-Poached Pears with Apricot Sauce

Submitted by: Anna
Living In: Seattle, Washington, USA
This is a great dessert for a fancy party or a girl's night in! I love pears, and I love this recipe, because lighting the rum on fire caramelizes the sugar, and pulls out the flavor of the pears. I served this dish to a rich couple and got a hefty tip back, so I figured it must have been good! 

Sweet Chocolate Pears

Submitted by: Manuela
Luscious ripe pears are slowly baked in a sweet bath of orange juice and sugar, then served with their own orange sauce and a drizzle of melted chocolate. For best presentation choose firm pears, do not remove the stem, and core the pear from the bottom.

This golden, glossy delight could not be easier to make. All major varieties of pears - Bartlett, Bosc, red, Anjou - work equally well. However, Bosc roasts up slightly firmer than the others.

My grandmother would use food coloring to make red and green pears only at Christmastime, and I enjoy carrying on her tradition. When I prepare this for a salad, I fill the centers with fresh fruit, fruit cocktail or cottage cheese. As a dessert, there are more options...a dab of whipping cream with a cherry on top, a drizzle of chocolate on top of the whipped cream or a scoop of sherbet in a contrasting color. -Mary Selner, Green Bay, Wisconsin
