- 1 cup pecans, chopped 250 ml
- 1 cup brown sugar, lightly packed 250 ml

CARAMEL SAUCE
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1⁄2 cup corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1⁄4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine
- 1⁄2 cup whipping cream
directions
- Combine flour, pecans, sugar, and oats in a large bowl. Add margarine and mix well. Pat this mixture on a large baking sheet with sides. Bake at 400F stirring occasionally for 15 minutes Crumble while warm. Cool.
- Press half of crumb mixture into a 9 x 13 pan. Drizzle with half the sauce.
- Spread ice cream over crumb mixture and add remaining crumbs and sauce. Cover and freeze. Remove from freezer 10 minutes before serving.
- ( line pan first with saran, wax paper or parchment paper, so it lifts out of dish easily to a flat surface for slicing)Also, I cut it and wrap in saran individual pieces to take out of freezer when needed. This is an extremely rich dessert so I cannot judge portions. I would not serve more than about a 3" square per person.

We made this recipe for a large group of teenage girls at a swim party. They loved it. Also served it to a group of college-aged guys. We also make the topping and just serve it on vanilla ice cream. Some of our family thinks it is more delicious this way with the topping freshly made and served immediately. Great! Thank you. -
It was delish, and like Bayhill wrote, it was very rich, maybe next time I'll use less sugar? I used walnuts and white sugar in the crumble! It's a nice way to make plain ice-cream into something fancy! Thank you! -
Wow!! This is so yummy and oh so very, very rich. Next time, I might even cut the serving size in half, as a 3x3" piece is almost too much. My family did love this and I will definitely be making this again. Thank you for sharing another wonderful PAC recipe.

I have been a recipe collector for years and years now and have thousands of tried and true favorites. I also have thousands I have never even tried and more that I would never try. I am even compiling my own cookbooks for some later date.
I used to own my own restaurant and between my Mom and I did all the baking for it. I am now the owner of a very busy motel and have a breakfast room with all homemade muffins and breads.
I am interested in anything unusual that I might serve to my customers.
My favorite recipe book definately is "The American Woman's Cookbook" published in 1938 for the first time. It has the best recipes I have ever found - until I got a computer.
