2. Cut 4 slices of brioche bought the day before and cut out hearts. Beat 1 egg, 1 tablespoon of sugar and 10 cl of milk in a shallow dish. Soak the brioche in it and brown with butter in a nonstick pan for about 2 minutes on each side.
3. In the same pan, brown the pear cubes for 1 minute.
4. Break 1 whole egg and 1 yolk in a bowl that can take heat, then add 30g sugar and sparkling wine. Place it in a bain-marie, then 5 minutes before the end of cooking, whisk with an electric mixer. Mix until it becomes thick and foamy.
