Preheat oven to 220°C. Put the flour, the sugar, the egg, the butter pieces, the yeast and the wine in a bowl. Then mix all together until you obtain a solid dough.

Divide the dough in two parts: one large part is for the tart base and the other (50 g) for decoration. Dampen a sheet of baking paper and put it on the bottom of a 24 cm diameter deep cake-tin. Then roll out the first part of the dough 1 cm thick and cover the bottom and the sides of the tin.
Wash, dry and peel 2 pears. Then cut the pears into small slices and put them on the dought as shown in the picture below.
In a pan put the dark chocolate (or milk chocolate as you prefer) with the milk and the yolk, and cook until the chocolate is melted and you obtain a cream (for about 4-5 minutes).

When the cream of chocolate is ready pour it on the pear.
Now roll out the second part of the dough on a table and cut it into thin strips. Then put them on the surface of the chocolate to decorate the tart.

Bake for 30 minutes
