I like to make this very rich ice cream at home, then take it to parties or dinners. It's so convenient. If I pour it in the freezer right before we leave, It's done when we arrive-and it "ripens" by the time that it's served!

The pecans in this ice cream add a nice crunch and flavor. I think it would also be good with walnuts or almonds.
