Instructions

  1. Halve, core and peel the pears.
  2. Bring white wine with vanilla and cinnamon, lime juice, sugar, a good pinch of gingerbread spice and some water to the boil and simmer for about 10 minutes. Put the pear halves in, let simmer for a few more minutes, turning once too if the pears are not covered, then remove the pan from the stove and let the pears cool in the brew.
  3. Let the chocolate slowly melt with a dash of whipped cream or milk, season with the Cointreau or another orange liqueur.
  4. Place the drained pear halves on top of the chocolate sauce or partially cover with it.
  5. Garnish with candied oranges, fresh orange slices, chocolate flakes or chocolate flakes (preferably the orange-flavored ones), speculoos or something similar.
  6. A little lemon balm or mint is pleasing to the eye.
