[email protected]Not bad, but not the best butter pecan ice cream I've had. It was a little too sweet for my taste and the pecans were a bit too crunchy.

[email protected]This butter pecan ice cream is the best I've ever had! It's so creamy and flavorful, with just the right amount of sweetness. The pecans add a nice crunch and nutty flavor. I'll definitely be making this again and again.
