Ingredients
- 1 3/4 C. firmly packed brown sugar
- 1 C. butter
- 1 C. whipping cream
- 1 C. coarsely chopped pecans, toasted
- 3 lbs. pears, cored and sliced
- 1 1/2 lbs. red apples, cored and sliced
- 1 1/2 lbs. green apples, cored and sliced
- 1 fresh lemon, squeezed
Procedure
Combine brown sugar, butter, whipping cream and pecans in a heavy saucepan. Cook
over medium heat until butter melts. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Reduce heat and simmer 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent
scorching.
Pour into chafing dish and set the heat source so that it keeps the dip warm but
not simmering.
Serve with pear and apple slices or other fruit slices of your choice.
To prevent the fruit slices from turning brown, toss the fruit with a little
freshly squeezed lemon juice before arranging on a serving platter.
