INGREDIENTS

1/4 c Sugar
1 tb Dark rum
1 lg Pear
6 Whole dried apricots; chopped
1/2 oz Fine-quality bittersweet chocolate; chopped
1/4 ts Vanilla

INSTRUCTIONS

In a heavy saucepan combine the sugar, the rum, and 1/2 cup water and
simmer the mixture for 2 minutes. Add the pear, peeled, halved, and cored,
and the apricots and poach the fruit, covered, spooning the syrup over the
pear occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the pear is tender. In a
small heavy saucepan combine the chocolate, 2 tablespoons water, and the
vanilla and heat the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly, until it
is smooth. Transfer the pear halves to a work surface, cut them diagonally,
into 1/4-inch-thick slices, and fan them onto 2 plates. Sprinkle the
apricots over the pear slices and spoon the chocolate sauce around the
fruit.
