Roasted Pears With Gorgonzola, Honey, And Pistachios

• 3 firm ripe Anjou or Bartlett pears (about 1 pound)
• Cooking spray
• 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
• 1/4 cup (2 ounces) 1/3-less-fat cream cheese
• 1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
• 4 teaspoons honey, divided
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped pistachios

1. Preheat oven to 450u0b0.
2. Peel and core pears. Cut each pear in half lengthwise. Place pear halves, cut sides down, on a jelly-roll pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 450u0b0 for 30 minutes or until tender and lightly browned.
3. While pears bake, bring balsamic vinegar to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium-high heat; cook 4 to 5 minutes or until reduced to 1 1/2 tablespoons.
4. Combine cream cheese, Gorgonzola cheese, 1 teaspoon honey, and salt; stir until smooth.
5. Place warm pear halves, cut sides up, on individual dessert plates. Spoon about 1 tablespoon cheese mixture into the center of each pear half, and drizzle each pear with 3/4 teaspoon balsamic syrup and 1/2 teaspoon honey. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon pistachios over each serving. Serve warm.
