Gorgonzola Breakfast Pears With Cinnamon Raisin Sauce Recipe
This recipe came from an estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Cabrera Estate in Malakoff, Texas in 1986.

I'm a sucker for Gorgonzola and pears; this looks great!


Could we have measurements for the ingredients? How much sugar, butter, nutmeg, cinnamon? I could guesstimate, but do you have amounts?


I love this combination, it is so elegant and delicious.
