A Fantastic Dessert


Last night I made this absolutely delicious dessert and wanted to share the recipe with you.  The best part about it is the edible ice cream bowl.

2 sticks butter
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup finely chopped pecans
1 cup coconut
1 tsp vanilla

Melt butter in heavy fry pan until bubbly (not brown).  Add ingredients in order listed.  Stir.  Drop by teaspoon full onto cookie sheet 4 at a time.  Bake for 5-7 minutes at 325-350.  Cool on cookie sheet for a couple of minutes.  Use stiff spatula to lift off and drop while still warm into custard cups to form a bowl shape.  Makes about 24 bowls.  If it breaks you can put it back into pan and reheat.

After the bowl sets for a bit take it out of the mold, fill it with your favorite ice cream and toppings and serve it to your dinner guests.  It's guaranteed to be a hit!
