Chocolate-Dipped Pears

• 3 tbsp. dark chocolate pieces
• 1 small pear, sliced
• 2 tbsp. walnuts, chopped

Put 3 tbsp. dark-chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat for 30 to 45 seconds, or until chocolate is melted (don't overcook; chocolate will burn). Chop 1 small pear into slices; dip into chocolate until half of each slice is covered. Sprinkle chocolate-dipped ends with 2 tbsp. chopped walnuts, place on waxed paper, and refrigerate for 15 minutes, or until set.
