Day 7 Dessert: Poached Pears in Red Wine with Chocolate Sauce and Cool Whip

This was a perfect way to use up my 2 bosc pears.  My husband and I enjoyed this very much,but my kids did not enjoy it at all.  I simply peeled the pears and added them to a sauce pot filled with water and sweet wine.  I added some vanilla bean, cardamon pods, cloves and sugar.  I poached these until pears were tender.  I served them with heated hot fudge sauce which was  leftover in my fridge. I then topped it off with some cool whip that was from my freezer.  I am really getting down low in my food inventory.
