AUNT JOSEPHINE'S FRESH PEAR CAKE
This dense, moist, creamy-sweet pear cake was the signature dessert of my great-great aunts, Beth and Josephine. It was lost for several years. During that time we tried several different pear cake recipes, but none came close to this one. Now that it has been found again (and slightly updated), I want to share it with all of you, so that everyone can enjoy it! With love, Sarah.

- Use ripe pears: This will ensure that your cake is moist and flavorful. If your pears are not ripe, you can ripen them by placing them in a paper bag at room temperature for a few days.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
- Let the cake cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the cake to set.
- Serve the cake with whipped cream, ice cream, or your favorite frosting: This will add a delicious touch to your dessert.
