- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully removing it and transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the Topping
- In a saucepan, combine the brown sugar, milk, and butter.
- Bring the mixture to a slow boil and let it simmer for 3 minutes.
- Pour the topping over the cooled pear cake and return it to the oven for an additional 4 minutes.
- Once done, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
