There's a song that describes this dessert (don't remember the artist but who cares!?) "Simply Irresistible!" My bad, I didn't have half-n-half so I used milk (1% at that)...now I can justify the lower calories as why I made SUCH a piggy out-of-myself! The whole family loved the results, though. Gallivanting the globe on ZWT 5 with the *Groovy GastroGnomes* can be so delicious!! This is definitely a KEEPER--and I do love praline pecans!
