Peel, halve and core 2 pears. Put in a shallow dish with 1 cup water, 1/3 cup sugar, 1 cinnamon stick and 1 star anise pod. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave until the pears are soft, 8 minutes. Meanwhile, beat 1/2 cup heavy cream with 1 tablespoon sugar and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon until soft peaks form. Serve the pears with the syrup and cinnamon cream.

Anise is not everone's favorite with Pears.May I suggest a flavour of Cloves with just 2 with the Cinnamon stick{s}.If fragile,strain through a cheese cloth found in the Kitchen Area of a Kitchen Supplies for making certain all Spices stay out at End but Flavour prevails.This could be a haute cuisine dessert with a few changes.
