    This was a big hit with my guests. They truly enjoyed every bite! It was very light and airy. The Pear Brandy was wonderful in this recipe. Thank you Ina.

    My measurement error was using 2 1/2 cups cream instead of 1 1/2! I suppose this resulted in a more "creamy" custard but it was outstanding. I also used 1 tablespoon lemon zest, not 1 teaspoon. Had to substitute Grand Marnier because I did not have pear brandy. Since preparing this wonderful desert, I found pear brandy (very pricey, by the way, but I suspect worth it. I will be doing this again very soon, using correct measurements and the pear brandy. I suspect the result will be even better than my first try. Very easy to prepare.

    I just made this for the very first time, for a special birthday dinner. I used apples instead of pears, left out the pear liquor, used orange zest instead of lemon, (the zest really made the dish! added some dark chocolate chips and served it topped with mascarpone cheese. We both agreed that it was like a desert that you would get at an expensive restaurant! I want to eventually get the pear liquor and try it exactly the way that Ina made it.

    After reading some of the reviews, I added a little cinnamon and fresh grated nutmeg to the batter, did not find pear brandy so used a mix of vanilla brandy and regular brandy. The dessert is light, airy, sets up beautifully and looks great on a plate. And oh so tasty. My family loved it.

    This is one of the best meal enders ever. Friends were picking at the left overs while we cleaned up. Quick, easy and unbelivably delicious.

    Real easy to make and truly delicious. I just e-mailed the recipe to the guests we served it to. They specifically called just to have it. Enjoy

    This dessert is light and delicious. I thought this recipe might be a little too simple, but it turned out to very elegant. You could even put it over a pate sucre and make it into a tart.

    Not too bad. I might try it again with apples. I don't think the pears I got were ripe enough. It was pretty bland altogether. I would consider making it again and adding maybe some cinnamon and/or nutmeg, more vanilla. Maybe throw in some golden raisins.
