2 1/2 tbsp Sugar
2 2/3 cup All-purpose flour
1 1/4 tsp Baking soda
1 tbsp Ground ginger
2 tsp Ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp Dry mustard powder
1/4 tsp Ground cloves
1 cup Unsalted butter, room temp.

Instructions:
FOR PEARS: Add lemon juice to large bowl of cold water. Peel pears,
leaving stems intact. Use melon baller to remove core through bottom
end. Add pears to bowl of water. Bring Port, sugar, ginger, cinnamon
sticks and vanilla bean to boil in heavy large Dutch oven over high
heat, sturring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat to medium-low and
simmer syrup 10 minutes. Drain pears and add to syrup. Simmer until
tender, turning frequently, about 20 minutes. Using slotted spoon,
transfer pears to large container and stand upright. Boil syrup until
reduced to 1 3/4 cups, about 18 minutes. Pour syrup over pears.
Cover and chill. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead.) FOR CAKE: Position

Dust pan with flour; tap out excess. Mix chopped ginger and 2 1/2

stirring frequently, about 30 minutes. Mix flour, baking soda, and
spices in medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat butter and brown
sugar in large bowl until fluffy. Add molasses, coffee and chopped
ginger mixture and beat until blended (mixture may look curdled). Add
eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Reduce speed to
low. Add dry ingredients alternately with buttermilk, beginning and
ending with dry ingredients and beating after each addition until
just blended. Transfer bater to prepared pan. Bake until tester
inserted into center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Transfer to
rack and cool in pan. (Can be prepared 8 hours ahead. Cover and let
stand at room temperature.) FOR CREAM: Beat whipping cream, powdered
sugar, vanilla extract and ground ginger in large bowl until firm
peaks form. (Can be prepared 3 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.
Rewhip if necessary.) Cut gingerbread into 2 1/2 inch squares. Place
1 cake square and 1 pear on each of 8 plates. Spoon some syrup over
each pear. Spoon dollop of whipped cream alongside.
