Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pouch Betty Crocker™ sugar cookie mix
1 tablespoon Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 egg
3/4 cup unsalted butter
2 Anjou pears, peeled, thinly sliced
3 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray.
  • In large bowl, stir together cookie mix and 1 tablespoon flour. Add 1/2 cup softened butter and 1 egg; stir until a soft dough forms. Gently press dough evenly in bottom of baking dish.
  • Bake 10 to 15 minutes or just until dough is set and light golden brown on edges. Set aside to cool.
  • Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, melt 3/4 cup butter over medium heat. Once melted, cook butter about 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until butter turns a deep golden brown. (Be careful because this happens quickly!) Remove saucepan from heat; immediately pour butter into glass measuring cup. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • While butter is cooling, place sliced pears in single layer over cooled cookie crust.
  • In large bowl, beat remaining Topping ingredients with whisk until well blended. Gradually add brown butter, beating until smooth. Pour mixture evenly over pears.
  • Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until deep golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 1 hour. With sharp knife, cut into 4 rows by 3 rows.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover pears. They're also a great snack or dessert.

These cookies were a bit of a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly.

These cookies are amazing! They're soft and chewy, with a perfect balance of sweetness and tartness. The brown butter adds a lovely nutty flavor.
