3. Mix in the eggs and then add the cocoa powder

4. Add the flour, the mixture will be quite thick so add some milk to loosen it and mix well until everything is combined

5. Fold in the chocolate chips and then grease your cake tin.

6. Pour the chocolate mixture into your tin and smooth over.

7. Peel and core your pear and chop up into cubes and spread over the top of the cake mixture, carefully pushing down slightly so the pears are covered in the chocolate mixture.
