Instructions

  1. To prepare:
  2. Cut the couverture into pieces, stir in a small saucepan in a water bath over low heat to a smooth mass, allow to cool slightly.
  3. For the topping, place the pear halves in a sieve and drain well.
  4. For the dough:
  5. Mix flour with baking powder, put in a sealable bowl (3 liters), mix with sugar. Add eggs, butter or margarine, heavy cream and melted couverture. Close the bowl tightly with the lid and shake vigorously several times (15-30 seconds in total) so that all ingredients are well mixed. Mix everything well with a whisk or mixing spoon so that the dry ingredients are also mixed in at the edge.
  6. Place the dough on a greased baking sheet (30 x 30 cm) and smooth it out.
  7. Cut the pears into thin wedges and place them on the dough like a roof tile. Put the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake at 180 degrees (gas level 2-3) for about 30 minutes.
  8. Let the cake cool and sprinkle with melted couverture.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
