This is SOOOO GOOD! I had gotten this recipe in 1993 from a friend and made it long ago, then didn't make again till recently and am making it again. Fortunately for me, Kittencal had posted it so after I misplaced my tattered copy, I didn't have to clean 3300 square feet of house to find it before I could make it again. Mine called for all the pecans to be mixed with the cookie crumbs and butter, then a portion of the entire mixture is saved for topping. I also toast my pecans a bit before mixing the crust. Some other changes are that I brew a tiny bit of extreme espresso instead of using instant coffee, and I whip 1/2 pint of heavy cream instead of using cool-whip. I use Mrs. Richardson's Hot Fudge Topping for the chocolate. This is so easy and delicious, I cant believe it took me 15 years to make it again. And in my ever-so-humble opinion, you can always count on Kittencal for a winner! Thanks!
