This was a very good dish. I cut it in half because there are only 2 of us. Dulce De Leche Ice cream is our very favorite of all ice creams, and it has stand alone qualities. I thought the sauce and the ice cream would have been just as good without the pears... but it really was a great dish.

I am a former retail management slave who is now a stay at home mom who absolutely loves her job. I have an eight year old, a two year old and a nine month old who all bring their own kind of joy to my life. My favorite thing in the world is to cook. We have a real, from scratch family dinner almost every night. Please don't be offended if I somewhat change a recipe in my review. I look at recipes sort of as guidelines, and alter them according to inspiration. I've received alot of helpful advice from reviews, that's why I share what I've done differently. With my little ones I'm pretty busy, but I LOVE this site and plan on being even more active as they get older.
