DESCRIPTION

This cake is one of those elegant dinner party cakes that is surprising easy to make. The combination of pear, honey and walnuts is a classic one, but blue cheese is pretty polarizing. Some people love it, while others will find it rather offensive, especially in a dessert. I used Kerrygold’s Cashel Blue Farmhouse Cheese but feel free to pick a blue cheese of your choice. Or serve it without (or on the side) for those who aren’t a fan.



INGREDIENTS

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup (150 g) whole wheat flour
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 lb (1 large or 2 medium) Bosc pears
  • 1 cup (140 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons blue cheese
