1.Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
2.Heat the butter in a frying pan over a medium heat. When the butter is foaming, add the pear pieces, brandy, grated ginger and cloves and stew until the pear has softened. Transfer the mixture to an ovenproof dish and drizzle over the orange juice.
3.In a bowl, whisk together the cream and melted chocolate until smooth and well combined. Add chilli powder and pour chocolate mixture into the ovenproof dish.
4.Leave chocolate to cool before sprinkling the shortbread crumbs into the ovenproof dish so that they completely cover the chocolate and pear mixture. Bake in the oven for 6-7 minutes, or until the shortbread is golden-brown and the chocolate and pear mixture is bubbling. Serve immediately.
