1. In a small saucepan, melt 4 TBSP butter. Mix in the ginger snaps.
2. Place the pear halves, cut side up in a greased baking dish, just big enough to hold them.
3. Divide the ginger snap mixture between the 4 pears, and pack the cavity where the core used to be.
4. In the small saucepan, place 1 TBSP butter, honey, and orange juice. Heat until melted.
5. Stir and pour over pears.
6. Bake 350° for about 1/2 hour until pears are soft and slightly browned.
