Simply amazing. i thought having a jam texture with chocolate would be weird, but it definitely isn't! the blend of pear and chocolate taste amazing! i can't wait to share this with my family for christmas! i found this recipe on grouprecipes.com and had to share when i saw there was nothing on here like this. thanks aurore!!

Steps

Put a small plate in the freezer for later use.
Peel and core pears.
Dice them or use a food processor.
Mix the pears and lemon juice in a large sauce pan.
Add sugar and bring to boil.
Lower heat and simmer for 20-30 minutes.
Stir occasionally.
Chop chocolate and put aside.
Once you hit 20 minutes , take the plate out of the freezer and put a small amount of jam on it to test for gelling.
Wait for a few seconds and then see if jam runs.
If it does and you want a thick jam , cook for a few more minutes and repeat process.
Stir chocolate into jam , stir and wait for a simmer.
Turn off heat.
