Ingredients:

1 large green pear

1 Tablespoon crushed pineapple

1 teaspoon butter

1 dash cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 teaspoon sugar

1 teaspoon brandy

1 walnut

1 teaspoon Everclear*

matches, towel, & fire extinguisher

Instructions:

Peel and core large pear. Place in bowl for microwave. Stuff with pineapple. Add butter. Pour brandy and vanilla over pear. Sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over pear. Add walnut pieces. Cook until a knife slides easily into the pear. This will vary from 3 to 10 minutes, depending upon the hardness of the pear.

Add the Everclear* to a depression in the tip of the pear and ignite. Be sure that you have no Everclear on anything you do NOT want to burn, such as your hands. Serve post-haste.
