CHOCOLATE-WRAPPED PEARS
Steps:
- Dissolve the sugar in the water. Add the lemon juice, spices and creme de menthe and simmer, tightly covered, for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Peel the pears carefully, leaving stems intact, and cut a slice off the bottoms so they will stand upright.
- Poach the pears in gently boiling syrup until tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool pears in the syrup and then chill thoroughly, preferably overnight.
- Melt the chocolate in a bowl over warm water. Add the butter and stir until it is melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Remove the pears from the syrup and dry carefully with paper towel. Dip each pear in the melted chocolate to coat evenly. Use a spoon, if necessary, to fill in uncoated spots. Lift the pears out of the chocolate to drain off excess. Arrange on serving dish. Decorate the top of each pear with a sprig of fresh or crystallized mint. Chill until ready to serve.
CREME DE MENTHE BARS
his is a very easy recipe. My son won a purple ribbon (which is higher than a blue ribbon) at the county fair when he was 10 years old. This was also his first paid 'catering' job for a graduation party when he was 12 (he's married now, so that gives you a clue as to how long I've had this recipe). Great brownies with a mint flavored filling.

PEARS DE MENTHE
This is not a gourmet recipe. One of those that we can put together when the cupboard is getting bare and time short. Have made it often and even for guests - always well received. Of course you can make your own chocolate sauce which is always better. You will need a large can of pear halves. Preparation time does not include freezing time.
