A few of my friends have been raving how delicious these baked pears are.

We originally took this idea for a spin in our kitchen, putting together different toppings, and in conclusion, it turned out a favorite. OK, by now, I’m really beginning to crave for some, lol… You guys will love this recipe, plus, this is a good recipe for all the late night snacking with friends.
Optionally, you can substitute ricotta with cream cheese. As for the toppings, different types of chocolates and berries, including canned cherries.

Can you do this recipe with regular green pears? Or it won't bake as soft?
They will turn out too soft, I think. The texture in those is just perfect for baking.

Yes Tina! I am discussing with hubby if I should go eat one now or tomorrow 🙂

Luba, I am sorry about you having to wait. I hope you love them just as much as we did 🙂
