Chocolate Pear Cake

• 4 small pears
• 500ml water
• 170g granulated or caster sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice

1. Peel the pears, slice the bottoms off so they are level, and cut the seeds out from inside the pears.
2. Put the water, 170g of granulated or caster sugar, 1 teaspoon of caster sugar, and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. Heat the water, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved, and the water is gently simmering. Put the pears into the water, and gently poach for about 10 minutes, until the pears have softened slightly. Remove from the water, and drain onto kitchen paper to remove excess water.

For the cake:

• 185g butter (soft)
• 1 ½ cups brown sugar
• 3 eggs
• 2 cups self-raising flour
• 1/3 cup cocoa powder

Beat the sugar and butter together until light and fluffy, add eggs one at a time and mix well. Sift the flour and cocoa into the bowl and mix well until everything is combined.

Spoon the mixture over the pears, smooth the top and bake for 50-60 minutes or until cooked through.

Cool for about 10 minutes and then invert onto a serving plate.
