"This "Buster Bar Freeze" is beyond words, after tasting this at a friends BBQ last summer, I was hooked. I just recently got the recipe from her, and just couldn't wait until the summer to post it, but don't wait until then to make it, this is a decadent dessert for any season--you will love this! (Note: prep time includes freezing time)."

This is to-die-for!!!! While vacationing out west, we had quite a few pot luck dinners and I prepare this for the gang. THE CROWD WENT WILD! I loved the fact that it can be made ahead of time and just pulled from the freezer and serve. Thanks, Kittencal, for sharing this. It's a GREAT find.

This was very nice. Only problem we don't get cool whip here so I used whipped cream and it wouldn't thaw the same time as the rest of the slice so next time I will use either another layer of icecream or maybe even melted chocolate with crushed maltesers for the topping. I also had a problem with the chocolate sauce setting it took a long time and when leaving it out 5 min before serving it would begin to melt into a sauce. But it was very nice and I will make it again and tweek it a little bit for my taste. Thanks for a great recipe!
