This past Saturday we were invited to have dinner with friends. I was in charge of dessert. The challenge was that it was the first perfect Saturday of spring. Breezy, warm, sunny, it was too nice to be inside, so I spent it all, the entire day outside. Do you see where this is going? I had hardly an hour to pull together a dessert. The pressure was on.
Within 30 minutes I had dessert done. It was silly-easy and was extra delicious when served with vanilla ice cream. First I baked the pastry, 25 minutes at 350 degrees. Then in a large sauce pan combine thinly sliced pears, a bag of frozen cherries, and some brown sugar.
let it simmer until it gets gooey, sweet and delicious. Finally spread a thin layer of tapioca pudding on the pastry and top with the fruit.
Ingredients
One pear thinly sliced
1 bag of frozen cherries
1 tub of vanilla or tapioca pudding
1 sheet of puff pastry
1/2C Brown Sugar
dash of vanilla
dash of corn starch (I added this to the fruit so that it got thick)
