    This was pretty average to me. My husband is a sweet-freak and even he thought it was too sweet (and I cut back on the brown sugar. The pear flavor didn't come through at all - maybe it was my pears. Don't think I'd do this one again.

    Seriously one of the best desserts I've ever had. I made this for a dinner party and everyone, including the men, loved it. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great. I want to eat this every day of my life!

    I made this for a dinner party 2 years ago. Everytime I have people over, they ask for it. It is extremely easy and fast to make. I put it in a fondue pot and let it simmer even further, which produced even more caramelization for the sugar and everyone went WILD with it. Thanks Giada!

    My husband and brother-in-law thought this was the best dessert they had tasted in a long time, and it is so easy to make. Bosc Pears are now a staple in my house.

    I used an Asian Pear for this an the skin sliced some cross hatches in the pear until it hit the skin. This really let the juices soak in and made it much easier to eat. So simple and so tasty

    Easy to prepare. Good pears would be key. I liked it, but not a lot of pizazz.

    I was looking for a dessert with pears and i picked this one. My husband loved it! He had another helping and said he wanted it again tomorrow. This recipe was so easy and the pears were soft.
