• Prepare pear base: Combine pears, brown sugar, chocolate chips, and cinnamon in a bowl. Distribute evenly among the prepared ramekins.
• Prepare topping: Combine flour and sugar in a bowl. Add butter and mix until crumbly. Stir in chocolate chips. Pack crumble topping firmly over pear mixture in the ramekins.

PEAR AND CHOCOLATE CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Place the flour, sugar and butter in a food processor. Pulse until it forms a fine powder. Add the oats and pulse to mix. Chill.
• Peel and core the pears. Cut into small cubes about an inch in diameter. Put the pears in a saucepan with the lemon juice and the sugar. Bring to the boil and then simmer for a while until the pears begin to tenderise. This depends on how ripe your pears are. If they are like bullets then you may need to do this for 20 to 30 minutes. If they are juicy and ripe then just bring to the boil. Allow to cool.
• Preheat oven to 200 deg Celsius.
• When the pears are cool, place them an oven proof dish. Add the chocolate and give it a mix. Do not be tempted to add more chocolate, it will over power the dish! Finally add the topping and sprinkle with some more brown sugar.
• Cook for 20-25 minutes or until piping hot.
• Serve with custard or vanilla ice cream and enjoy.

CHOCOLATE PEAR CRISP

Steps:

• If you're going to cook this immediately, preheat the oven to 160C/ gas 3 while you cook the pears on the hob. Otherwise you can leave the preheating until you're ready to cook the topping.(e.g. I made my pear filling ahead of time, so heated the oven while I made the topping).
• Peel (if desired), core and chop pears into small chunks.
• Place in a saucepan with lemon juice and sugar. Bring to the boil, then cover and cook for 10 minutes. Uncover and cook for a further 8-10 minutes to allow the liquids to thicken up.
• Divide between 4 ramekins, and if using, top with the liqueur.
• Sift the icing sugar and cocoa together, then stir in the ground almonds.
• Whisk the egg white until stiff, then fold into the dry ingredients. (It also works the other way round -- so don't worry).
• When the cocoa sugar almond mixture is combined with the egg white, it should be a stiff dropping consistency. Top the pear filled ramekins with it, it will spread and puff during cooking so it doesn't have to reach the edges or be enormously neat.
• Bake in the oven at 160 C/gas 3 until the topping is firm to the touch - 20-25 minutes. Serve hot or cold.
