Don't you just love ice cream, and butter pecan is a favorite in my house. This is such an easy but delicious recipe. You make it and leaving it in the bowl put in in your freezer and you have ice cream! I am wondering if you reduce the amount of the ingredients if it couldn't be changed to work with an ice cream maker. Either way it is amazing.

Pecan Sandies is a cookie from my childhood. I used to get Mom to buy the Keebler bag of Sandies and they were all for me. I loved them. I took them to school, for afternoon snack, for after dinner dessert. I loved them. Interestingly enough, I have never made them. I only ever bought them.

Well here is a recipe that actually gives you two choices. I love making cookies from Cake mix, which i

You will really love this amazing recipe. It is a recipe that I tweaked from my mom. She taught me about adding the cream cheese to make the denseness absolutely perfect. And if you have a pound cake without denseness, you don't have pound cake. You must try this.
