I made this recipe today, I had some pears in the house and I didn;t know what to do with them, and I came across this recipe in a cookbook that I had.
It was so simple to make, and delicious. My daughter, who's a very picky eater, liked it. So here it is:

2 medium pears, peeled,halved and cored ( I didn't peel the pears, I only halved and cored the pears)
1 tablespoon lemon or lime juice ( I used lemon juice)
1 tsp of vanilla
2 tablespoons semisweet chocolate pieces.

Arrange the pear halves , cut side up in a 9-inch pie plate. I used a small baking dish. I also put a little water in the dish. I didn't want the pears to stick to the dish

Stir together either the lemon juice or lime juice and combine with the vanilla extract, brush over pears.

Bake covered in a 375 oven for 30 to 35 minutes or till pears are tender.
I cooked the pears in a 350 oven, and it took about 1hour to cook.
Uncover pears and sprinkle with the chocolate pieces. Spoon any liquid in the pie plate over pears.

Serve warm. Makes 4 servings.
