Oh my goodness!!!! This is so delicious!!!! Well what is not to like , chocolate that is melted in a crispy tortilla, then topped with carmel, ice cream and hot fudge and then pecans for me!!! My kids went for the dessert without the pecans. The only thing I did different, was to heat carmel topping in microwave and just toasted pecans in oven, that way kids didn't have the pecans in their carmel sauce. This is definitely a repeat here at our house, and maybe next time I can snap a photo in time!!!! Thanks TasteTester for a great dessert!!!!

Our family moved to Florida from New York in the 90's, so I've brought not only many of the recipes my family has passed down, but have learned to cook some great Southern dishes as well.? When I found RZ, it opened up a whole new world of cooking -- cuisine from different countries, tried-and-true family hand-me-down recipes, and some interesting and delicious dishes I would never have found on my own.
