How to Make Warm Spiced Cocoa Pears

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves until smooth.
  2. Place 6 ripe but firm pears, peeled, cored, and halved, in a medium-sized (3-4 quart) slow cooker.
  3. Dot the pears with 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) of unsalted butter.
  4. Pour the cream and spice mixture evenly over the pears.
  5. Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 3 hours, or until the pears are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
  6. Gently stir the pears and their sauce. Serve warm, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
