These are so simple and so good!
Halve and core pears.
Rub skins with butter, place cut side down in a greased baking dish.
Drizzle generously with golden syrup (below, or purchased bottled) and a few tablespoons of rum.
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, basting once in a while.
Serve cut side up with unsweetened whipped cream.(maybe with a sprinkle of finely chopped walnuts?)
These would also be very good with maple syrup.

Put 1/4 cup sugar in a small heavy saucepan and shake pan so the sugar is in an even layer. Sprinkle it with 1/2 tsp vinegar and 1 tsp water.
Cook over low heat, without stirring, for 5 minutes.
Increase heat to medium and cook until syrup has taken on a light caramel color, 5 to 6 minutes. Immediately remove from heat and pour int 1/3 cup light corn syrup. Do not stir, but let it bubble for 2 to 3 minutes. When the bubbling stops, stir well.
It can be stored at room temperature for several months.
