There was a recent request for a Caramel ice cream dessert that could be served at Thanksgiving. This recipe is one that can be adapted to meet your tastes by using various flavors of ice cream, Ice cream toppings, different kinds of nuts, crumbled candy bars and Cool whip. It can be made ahead and stored in the freezer. It is always a hit and is usually the first dessert to disappear. Robbie In

Quick Ice Cream Dessert

Half gallon of moose tracks ice cream, softened or other flavor

2 Jars Hot Fudge or Carmel ice cream topping
1 cup peanuts
1 cup Reeses Peanut Butter Cups crumbled
1 (8 oz.) Cool Whip

Spread softened ice cream in a 9X13 pan, then spread 1 jar hot fudge or Carmel sauce over ice cream. Sprinkle peanuts over top, then sprinkle crumbled Reeses Peanut Butter Cups and top with Cool Whip. Spread the second jar of hot fudge sauce over the Cool Whip. This can be made ahead and stored in the freezer; take out 15 – 20 minutes before serving. Note: You can use any combination of ice cream, ice cream topping, nuts, and crumbled candy that you like. If you can find the chocolate Cool Whip or strawberry Cool Whip, and they work with the combinations you have chosen, consider using them.
