A friend of mine, who picks pecans every year, brought me some of these yummy bars along with a sack of pecans. They are incredibly rich and gooey, and freeze like a dream. Easy and perfect for the holiday season.

Easy No-Bake Strawberry Ice Cream Cake
It's hard to find a summer dessert more refreshing than this easy no-bake strawberry ice cream cake, made with a combination of strawberry ice cream and a purchased 10-inch angel food cake! Layers of cake and ice cream, frosted with a purchased frozen whipped topping, are stored in the freezer until you are ready to garnish and slice. This ice cream cake should keep, covered, in the freezer for 1 to 2 weeks. I've never been able to find out exactly how long it will store, because it's usually gone in a few days!
