I should have read the reviews before I made it and lowered the temp because the butter and sugar went all over the pan and burned. I agree with the other reviewers - too much butter and sugar. And the cheese was unnecessary. It was very simple though. I would use fresh pears next time and maybe add cream cheese. I also wouldn't cut it until I served it - I thought that step was unnecessary.

Great dessert. We, occasionally, cook a dinner at a senior center for 55 to 60 people. We used this as our dessert, at the last dinner. I had to go home and print 45 copies of the recipe. It was that great. We have tried this with different fruits. Outcome still the same. GREAT!
