caramel pecan ice cream pie
This is my spin on my mother-in-laws "Ice-cream Pie".
I like to use the sugar cookie crust, it adds a different crunchy texture and of course for flavor. You can make it the traditional way with a regular cooked pie crust. Either way, enjoy!
Ingredients:
1 cream cheese
1 can of condensed milk
1 container of cool whip
1 cup toasted and chopped pecans
1 small jar of caramel sauce
1 bag of miss jones sugar cookie mix
