You know, I am fond of pampering my boyfriend! He is so sweet tooth baby! I love him immensely!!! And cook for him various desserts as often as I can. So, now I already gathered a lot of fine recipes... Decided to share some with you, that you would also pamper your beloved or family members... One of my favorite desserts is called "drunk" pears.
To prepare it, you need: 4 big pears, 2 glasses red dry wine, 3/4 glass sugar, 1/2 cinnamon, 1 lemon peel.
Peel pears, remove their core. Then make syrup of wine, sugar, water, cinnamon and grated lemon peel. When the syrup begins to boil, put in it pears and boil for 12-15 min. until they become soft. Leave pears in syrup for some time, then put them in glass bowl. Continue to boil the syrup with the little fire, until its quantity diminishes by half. Filter it and pour onto pears.
By the way, it would be wonderful to serve "drunk" pears with almond biscuits and muscat wine!
