Steps to make Baked pears in puff pastry:
  1. Blend together flour, butter, and salt in a bowl with your fingertips or a pastry blender, just until mixture resembles coarse meal with some roughly pea-size butter lumps.
  2. Drizzle 3 tablespoons ice water evenly over mixture and gently stir with a fork until incorporated.
  3. Squeeze a small handful: If it doesn't hold together, add more ice water, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, stirring until incorporated, then test again. Do not overwork dough or pastry will be tough.
  4. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 4 portions. With heel of your hand, smear each portion once or twice in a forward motion to help distribute fat. Gather dough together, with a pastry scraper if you have one, and press into a 5-inch disk. Chill, wrapped in plastic wrap, until firm, at least 1 hour.
  5. Rinse the pears under running water. Pat them dry with clean kitchen towel. Cut each one in half lengthwise. Remove any hard parts and scoop out the seeds by creating a dent where the Nutella filling will go. - Place each pear half onto rolled out puff pastry dough, cut side down. Leave enough space in between each one of them. Cut out the pastry around each pear making sure the cut out pastry is at least 0.5 inch (1.3 cm) wider than the pears. - Use the leftover pastry to cut out leaves.
  6. 2 leaves per pear. Use a cookie cutter or a knife to cut them out. With the knife, make some indentation in each leaf, so it looks like veins.
  7. Take each pear and fill the dent with Nutella. Place it back onto the puff pastry (cut side down) and press down slightly. Brush the exposed puff pastry areas with milk.
  8. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F/200°C for 10 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown. - Serve them with chocolate sauce.
