    Beautiful and simple - I serve with rose infused Greek yogurt and a rose geranium leaf for a natural finish and appeal!

    After tasting the fluid the pears were soaking, I began to get nervous, thinking the pears would be "wine-y" and too strong for consumption. Boy was I wrong! They were perfect & the filling is a great accompaniment!

    This was so friggin' awesome. The pears had a wonderful Christmasy sort of taste while the Mascarpone cream filling added depth that made mouths WATER. People were walking around coveting them, you'd swear they'd take a bite out of YOU if you tried to take it from them. This one is a HIT!

    What a wonderful fruit dessert! I made this on the spur of the moment, using ingredients that I had on hand (5 pears, finely chopped pecan praline instead of pistachios in the filling, and 3/4 of a bottle of shiraz wine. The results were wonderful. I did have filling left over which I plan to use tomorrow piped between small spice cookies.

    this recipe feels simple to make, if you spread it over two days, and i loved it. i let the pears sit in their poaching liquid 24 hrs, and they were pinot noir gorgeous. an the filling was the one extra surprise!
