Instructions:

Foil Wrapped Pears and Caramel Sauce

Source: My sister in Texas

Serves: 2

2 tablespoons room temperature sweet butter
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
generous pinch of cinnamon
1 comice or Anjou pear
1 navel orange halved

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Blend together butter, brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside.

Cut pear in half and remove core and cut off stem and blossom end. Do not peel the pear.

Place each pear half cored side up on a large square of doubled heavy duty foil. Scoop up 1/2 of the butter sugar mixture and form into a ball and press into pear cavity.

Gather foil up around pear and squeeze juice from 1 orange half over pear. Close foil around pear. Repeat with other half.

Place wrapped pears on a baking sheet and bake until very soft, about 1 hour. Remove pear from foil and place on plate, drizzle with caramel sauce.

This would be great topped with fresh whipped cream.
