Method

  1. Firstly, prepare a batch of pancakes (see tip below).
  2. In a pan, combine the chocolate, butter and golden syrup over a low heat, stirring until melted. Remove from the heat.
  3. Meanwhile, in a separate pan, gently toast the hazelnuts for 2-3 mins, or until golden. Remove from the heat and leave to cool a little, then roughly chop.
  4. Stir three quarters of the hazelnuts into the chocolate. To serve, divide the pear slices between 4 pancakes. Top with the chocolate sauce, and then scatter over the remaining hazelnuts.
