Comments: This classic pear and ice cream dessert makes a refreshing conclusion to a rich, spicy meal.
Ingredients:

Directions:
Combine water, sugar, vanilla, and lemon juice in a wide medium-sized non-aluminum saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring, and cook 2 minutes. Reduce heat so syrup stays at a simmer.

Add pears, partially cover pan, and poach pears, turning occasionally, 10 to 15 minutes or until just tender. Remove pan from heat and allow pears to cool in syrup.

When pears are cool, cover pan and refrigerate at least 1 hour.

Melt chocolate with butter in a small heavy gauge saucepan over very low heat. Stir in brandy. Remove sauce from heat and allow to cool, then cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Just before serving, reheat sauce over low heat. Scoop ice cream into individual dessert dishes. Top with pear halves and warm sauce.
