Great Ice Cream Topping - Reminds me of the days when it was cold and we had a fire burning in the old house. The smell of roasting pecans made you think of summer fun and not all the work that was ahead of us but of the time we made ice cream. This recipe from www.chef2chef.com reduced some of the calories for better enjoyment.

3 tbsp chopped pecans toasted
