Description

This dessert is a true classic that works wonderfully with the Thermomix®! The pears are gently poached and drizzled with a creamy chocolate sauce. I particularly like making this recipe in the fall when pears are in season. The combination of warm pears, cold vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce is simply unbeatable. If you like, you can sprinkle some chopped nuts on top. A great dessert for special occasions or just because!
