A simple pate sucre filled with a brown butter filling (simple butter browned until it has a hazelnut smell to it, with eggs, sugar a bit of flour and I added a bit more frangelico [hazelnut liquor] to flavor it a smidge). It was alright, I need to figure out how to make the brown butter taste like the flavor I add to it - I really wanted a hazelnut flavor to it, but besides adding roasted ground hazelnuts, I'm not sure how to do it.

Frangelico Pears with Brown Butter Filling

Wow, it looks great... Is it difficult to make? It looks pretty advanced...
ReplyDeletewow what nice flavours, never thought that hazelnuts go well with pears:) looks great
ReplyDeleteNo Ms. Ashley it was pretty easy! It's just a matter of time - poaching the pears, making the shells, letting them sit - rolling them out and then baking them. And then making the filling - Just time consuming - not too bad though! It was made from stuff I had hanging around.
