I created this for a co-worker who was leaving. I'd never heard of it before. It's pretty tasty.
Recipe
In a small skillet, saute over medium heat until lightly browned:
- 5/8c chopped, roasted pecans
- 2T butter
Stir in a medium sauce pan, bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally until thick:
- 1/2c brown sugar
- 1/2c maple syrup
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 1/2c half-and-half
Remove from heat and add:
- browned pecans
- 1/2c cream
- 1t vanilla
Let cool. Do the ice cream thing.
