Peel and halve the pears and remove the core. Bring 1.5 litres of water, 100 g sugar and lemon juice to the boil. Cook the pear halves at medium heat (lightly simmering) for about 15 minutes until firm to the bite. Remove the pears from the stock and let them drain on a tea towel. Cut the pears into strips on the convex side. Roughly chop the chocolate.
Melt butter and chocolate in a small pot at low heat while stirring. Remove from the stove. Roast the nuts in a pan without fat, take them out and chop them roughly. Whisk eggs, vanilla sugar, salt and 400 g sugar with the whisk of the hand mixer. Stir in chocolate butter. Mix flour and baking powder. Fold in the flour mix and 2/3 of the cashew nuts. Grease the fat pan of the oven (32 x 39 cm) well. Spread the dough evenly over it. Spread pear halves on the cake and sprinkle with the remaining nuts. Bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/ convection oven: 150 °C/ gas: level 2) for 25-35 minutes (the dough is very soft and juicy).
