I absolutely had to save and share this delicious recipe from the SPAR Savour online magazine (July 2017). The thing I love most about it, is it's all done in the food processor and tossed in the oven to bake. Super easy peasy. My kinda baking!

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup (250 ml) cake flour
¼ cup (60 ml) cocoa powder
125 g SPAR Castor Sugar
150 g SPAR Salted Butter, cut into small blocks
1 tsp (5 ml) baking powder
½ tsp (2.5 ml) bicarbonate of soda

METHOD
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Place all the ingredients, except the pear halves, in a food processor and blitz until you have a smooth, thick batter.
Spread the batter evenly over the base of a greased 24 cm baking dish.
Arrange the pear halves cut-side down and push them into the batter, allowing the batter to bulge around them.
Bake for 20-25 minutes. (Check at 20 minutes.)
Serve warm, dolloped with crème fraiche or a scoop of ice cream.
