4. In the meantime, in a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar. Next add 4 eggs and continue mixing until just combined.
5. Fold the chocolate into the butter and egg mixture and carefully add the flour and baking powder. Spoon on top of the pear and place into the preheated oven.
6. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until just set.
7. While the puddings are baking, whip some cream with the icing sugar and mascarpone.
8. Serve the cakes with the whipped cream.
