  1. This dessert is a winner with everyone in our family and no special occasion is needed! I will add that whenever I use chopped pecans or chopped walnuts, I always roast them at using my iron skillet on the stovetop for about 3-5 minutes on medium low heat. Watch them carefully so dory don’t burn. They are so much better in any recipe. Thank you for sharing this recipe!






    1. Hi, Brenda! I also love pecans toasted! What a great idea. I’m so glad you all enjoy it!

    1. Hi Angela! I use Smucker’s, Mrs. Richardson’s or any good looking caramel sauce near the ice cream sundae section at the store. Enjoy!
