25ml Water
50ml Double

Splash of

Pinch of sea salt
Method:
1. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F.
Cream
the butter and
sugar
until fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating in between. Fold in the
flour
and
vanilla
extract.
2. Line a 9-inch tin with baking paper and lay the
pears
in the bottom, skin side down. Spoon on the cake mix and spread evenly.
3. Bake for 30 minutes.
4. While this is
cooking
make the
caramel
. Pour the sugar into a saucepan and add the water, mix so all the sugar is moistened, but not up the sides of the pan. Place onto the heat and bring to the boil. Do not stir it, but shake the pan slight to spread when it starts to go brown and caramelise.
5. When it is a deep caramel colour, take off the heat and carefully add the cream. It will splutter and spit, so be careful! Then add the
brandy
and small splash of water. Place back onto the heat and cook until all combined. You can stir at this point.
6. When the cake is cool, turn out onto a plate so the pears are on top then pour over the
sauce
. Serve with cream or
custard
.
