      I made this for my brother's birthday, and I thought it was really good, but a little sweet.

      Made this for a gathering. It was ok for me, I think next time may be I will use better quality Icecream. Love the topping. Also it was a work of art to serve it LOL. I did keep it out for 20 mins before serving to soften it a bit & that helped. added :that I had a pan which I kept for later & it tasted YUMMMMMMMM so may be it gets better with time.

      More like a apple crumb pie a la mode without apples. It would make more sense to call it "turtle" if it had chocolate in it too. It was kind of a hassle to make the crust, but it turned out really crunchy and good.

      I made this for my boyfriend's birthday.... he *loves* ice cream. It was a big hit! I used a casserole dish instead to have a thicker "cake".

      This was great! I made it ahead for Valentine's Day - wonderful. This would be great to have for unexpected company - if you can keep it that long. Thanks for the great recipe.

      This was just fabulous. We loved this. The only thing I might change next time is to cut down the amount of crumb topping and I won't chop the pecans so small. I've been using the leftover crumb topping for oatmeal and with caramel sauce that I like to dip apples in. Great recipe!

      My teenage daughter thought this would be a good change from a typical birthday cake when we celebrated her last birthday. She never wants a "normal" birthday cake again. I used the same caramel sauce listed by another reviewer the second time I made this and thought it made it even better. We also used Schwans vanilla ice cream the second time and it also improved the cake, so don't skimp on the quality of the ice cream. We will make it again I'm sure!

      I followed the directions exactly and I'm sure it turned out like it was supposed to but we just thought it was entirely to sweet. I used Breyers vanilla bean ice cream. There also seemed to be too much of the crumb mixture for the amount of ice cream. With all the fantastic reviews I feel guilty giving only 3 stars but my family really didn't care for it at all. I wouldn't tell someone not to make it, just that they know it is extremely sweet and the texture of the crumbs was a little unappealing.

      Pamela, you're my new hero! This is divine! One of the few recipes that deserves so many more stars than 5! That aside - I was unsure of how long to bake the topping since it was already brown from the sugar, so watched it constantly & stirred often. After 15 minutes, I could "smell" that it was ready. Serving - another challenge. Probably, my choice of a springform pan was unwise; I was thinking of presentation. My solution - bring it to the table, describe what it was & let the guests come up with an answer. One enterprising young man accepted the challenge & portioned it out by continually heating the knife in hot water. The extra cake that I made for us home-folk to enjoy after the guests left was much easier - I left it on the counter for 20 minutes to soften then serving was a breeze. Live & learn; and invite smart, strong guests ;-) Thanks so much for sharing this stellar recipe!

      DH & I are in Dallas visiting SusieQusie, we had a dinner party last nite for 14 & SQ made this for our dessert. This may well be the best dessert I've ever tasted & it got universal sighs of bliss from our guests - a true taste sensation! She made it in a springform pan at my suggestion & serving it was challenging, but I'll leave that for her review. All I can think about is how utterly divine it tasted & how deserving it is of 10*! Our thx to you & SQ for sharing this yummy dessert w/us.

      This deserves more than 5 stars, it is terrific (and this is not something that would typically appeal to me)! I used Really Easy and Good Caramel Sauce (#78088) and almonds as suggested by Mommy2Many and my dinner guests went crazy for this dessert. Thanks for making me look good! :)

      This was absolutely delicious! Hubby wants me to make it for him every day. ; I used Really Easy and Good Caramel Sauce (#78088) in place of the caramel ice-cream topping as I wanted something all-natural and it worked a treat. I also used almonds instead of pecans and it tasted great to me!

      This is a super easy recipe to make ahead, and it was enjoyed by everyone who ate it. I left out the pecans because my kids don't like nuts, but served chopped, roasted ones on the side instead for those who wanted them. Thank you Pamela for posting this recipe.

      Hi Pam, I thought that I had put my review in already. Ooops. I have recommended this recipe to more than a few people who have tried it and wanted the recipe. It is a great looking and even better tasting dessert for a barbeque or just your friends who have stopped by. They all love it. Thanks for the recipe. I would highly recommend it. Also, my chocoholic friends drizzle Hershey's syrup on it and it also tastes great. Thanks, Joanne
