    YUMMY!! This is such an easy no brainer recipe. I enjoyed it even more than I thought I would (and I thought I'd love it ) I think it would be great to make up a bunch of the ice cream balls rolled in the pecans (and also maybe try other kinds of nuts as well) and keep in a container in the freezer for unexpected company or just for times I don't feel like making anything for dessert. Then just plop them in a pretty bowl or like I did a martini glass and drizzle with the syrups of choice. Great recipe! I will be making this again. Thanks for posting. Made for PRMR Tag.
