The puff pastry foundation, chocolate, custard, and almonds in this pear tart are all flavors that go well with pears.

Reviews
The crust would not come together and it needed much longer than 40 mins to bake, very runny inside. Next time will definitely use a recipe that mixes flour in the filling.
It taste good thank you for the idea
Add 1/3c sugar & 1/2tsp cinnamon to dough mixture for a much better tasting pie crust. Good recipe, thanks!
Dough for crust was incredibly dry and crumbly…I could not get it to stay together properly. The filling turned out good though.
