· 4 Tbs. unsalted butter, softened
· ½ cup plus 1½ Tbs. sugar
· Pinch of salt
· 2 Tbs. freshly squeezed lemon juice
· 1 Bosc or Red Bartlett pear

Heat oven to 400°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a food processor, combine cream cheese and butter. Add flour mixture, ¼ cup sugar and salt. Process until combined. Dough will be sticky. Turn dough onto prepared baking sheet. With lightly floured fingers, pat dough into an 8-inch circle.
In a medium bowl, combine ¼ cup sugar and lemon juice. Leaving skin on, cut pear into ¼-inch slices. Toss with lemon juice mixture. Drain liquid and arrange around the border of the dough, overlapping slightly. Arrange the remaining slices in the center. Sprinkle top with remaining 1½ Tbs. sugar and cinnamon. Bake 25 -30 minutes.
