  1. fantastic!! this reminds me of a recipe my mamaw used to make. i really enjoyed this, and so did my dad! my toddler wasn't too thrilled because of the nuts, i expected that tho! i followed the recipe exactly except that i cut it in half and used a 8x8 dish. it was so easy to put together, especially with the help of my food processor for the vanilla wafers crumbs! these are soooo heavenly and rich! thanks for posting! will make again for sure! made for spring pac 2010!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

My name is Kara. I am 26 years old, and I live with my wonderful husband (we got married 7/14/09!!) and our 6 cats...I love cats, can you tell?! I love to bake and have as far back as I can remember...I have been the official "cookie maker" for my family. As I have gotten older, I have discovered that I enjoy cooking all types of food. I learn a lot about things that I like, as I am often more willing to try new things if I make them in my own kitchen and know everything that goes into them. I love cooking pasta dishes and finding new ways to prepare chicken. I also am a huge fan of crockpot cooking. I basically love to cook all different types of food...I try to not make the same thing two times in one month. I have learned a lot of my kitchen know-how from my mom, dad, and grandmother, who are all wonderful cooks. I don't really have a favorite restaurant. I really like a restaurant close to where my dad lives called Milner's. Also, around town, I really like Chop House, Rafferty's, Aubrey's, P.F. Changs, and Mellow Mushroom. <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg">
