Baked Ginger Pudding, Cinnamon-Roasted Pears with Butterscotch Sauce

The combination of the rich sauce with the moist, spiced ginger pudding is delicious and is a very indulgent dessert to complete for an elaborate dinner party. The roasted pears just added a sense of added extravagance. Despite the impressive visual element of this dish it is surprisingly simple to make which just adds to the appeal!
