    AWESOME, AMAZING, REMARKABLE!!! I would rate it a 10 if I could! I can't say enough about this recepie! I made it for guests & there was an audible "YUM" with each bite! I have made this several times, with great raves each time! I have even made small changes, using differrent types of red wine, just make sure it is a wine you like to drink. I love cream cheese so I use 8 oz. I have tried different types of pear and all work great, as long as they arent too ripe or too hard, just make sure they are ALL the same & adjust your cooking time accordingly.

    The only complaint I have had is finding this recepie, it doesnt come up if you put in "Poached pears" (even thought 83 others come up.

    This recepie is definately worth trying!

    I changed this up a bit, because I thought white wine poached pears would be more visually appealing with the red strawberry topping. I used Moscoto wine for the poaching and used frangelico instead of the brandy in the cream filling. Any oh my, it was absolutely delightful. An easy and elegant dessert, and a perfect ending to a Spanish meal I cooked for friends--paella, etc. I will definitely do this often.
