Frozen Caramel Dessert

bullet½ cup butter, melted
bullet1 cup vanilla wafer crumbs, crushed
bullet½ cup brown sugar
bullet1 cup chopped pecans
bullet1 ½-2 cups purchased caramel sauce
bullet½ gallon frozen ice cream or yogurt

Combine melted butter, vanilla wafer crumbs, and brown sugar and mix well. Spread on baking sheet. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes. Stir to crumble and cool thoroughly.

Sprinkle ¾ of the mixture on the bottom of a 9 x 13 or an 8 x 12 casserole. Sprinkle chopped pecans over crumbs. Drizzle caramel sauce over the pecans. Spread the softened ice cream over the caramel sauce. Top with remaining crumb mixture. Freeze until solid.

NOTE: This was in the Whiskey Creek News in August 2007. It did not call for packed brown sugar, but I packed it. I also purchased Hershey’s caramel sauce and reduced fat Nabisco Vanilla Wafers. I also used Edy’s Slow Churned Vanilla Yogurt Blends. It comes in 1.75 quart containers, so I used an 8 x 12 dish rather than a 9 x 13 since it was not quite half a gallon.
