    " It was excellent "
    henrie ate it and said...
    I can see why it is often requested, it certainly got my attention. I love a good pear pie, to me it tastes like a really good apple pie. So this has to be equally as good or better then the orginal apple cake. You have my 5, a must to make, thank you for the great post.
