  • Preheat the oven to 180° C.
  • Crust: Add the nuts to a large bowl, sift the flour, add the vanilla, add the cubed butter, and mix with your hands until it forms a sandy texture without warming the butter too much. Add ginger, brown sugar, and nutmeg, mix well, pour into a baking tray, and bake for 20 minutes until it forms a cookie. Set the preparation aside.
  • Pear Filling: Heat a skillet and melt the butter, add diced pear, sugar, and white wine. Season with spices, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, and lemon zest. Set the preparation aside.
  • Once the crumble is cold, mix it with the pear filling until it becomes consistent. Add the pear mixture to a mold, compact it, and let it cool in the refrigerator.
  • Cheese Filling: Beat in a mixer the cream cheese base with mascarpone cheese, 1 teaspoon of lemon zest, sweetened condensed milk, and heavy cream.
  • Hydrate the gelatin with water and mix well. Melt the hydrated gelatin in the microwave.
  • Add the gelatin to the cheese mixture, pour it onto the base of the mold. Refrigerate and set aside.
  • Garnish with a little pear and serve in slices.
