This pear of chocolate flan is a crowd pleaser. I made it for morning teas at the office in the past and for desserts: children and adults love it.
In terms of difficulty level, it goes in the super easy basket. I get my children involved in the preparation. Today, I lost them when it came to put the pieces of pear in the mix, they were too busy leaking off the remaining chocolate from the wooden spoon and empty bowl.
