Title: Pears with Ice Cream And Hot Chocolate Sauce
Categories: Anything, You, Can, Cook
Yield: 4 servings

1 200 gram bar plain chocolate
50 g Unsalted butter
2 tb Light muscovado sugar
2 tb Golden syrup
150 ml Double cream
50 g Blanched hazelnuts
1 400 gram can pear halves in
-natural juice; drained
1 500 millilit vanilla ice
-cream; (good quality)

1 Heat a small frying pan. Break up the chocolate into squares and place in
a small pan with the butter, sugar, golden syrup and cream. Cook over a low
heat, stirring occasionally until smooth and shiny.

2 Roughly chop the hazelnuts and add to the heated frying pan. Cook for a
minute or so until toasted, tossing occasionally. Slice up the pears.

3 Scoop out two balls of ice cream from the tub (Brian only does one) and
arrange in a glass serving dish with some pear slices. Pour over some sauce
and scatter the nuts on top to serve.

TIP This chocolate sauce works well as a fondue. Dip in chunks of fresh
fruit ie melon, strawberries, pineapple, mango and marshmallows (pierced
onto skewers or cocktail sticks).
