It has been delightfully cooler here the past couple of days - and I am ready for Fall! But, I'll squeeze this recipe in before we leave summer behind for this year (or this week as the case likely is!)
1 - 11 oz. box vanilla wafers, crushed
1 stick butter
* Toss together crumbs and melted butter, reserve 1/2 c. crumb mixture; press remaining crumbs into greased 9x13 pan.
Chocolate Filling:
1 stick butter
2 squares unsweetened chocolate
2 c. powdered sugar
3 beaten egg yolks
3 beaten egg whites
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. chopped nuts, if desired
* Melt butter and chocolate over hot water. Add egg yolks and powdered sugar. Cook slowly over hot water a few minutes. Remove from heat and blend in egg whites, vanilla and nuts. Pour over crust. Cool.
Ice Cream: Slice softened ice cream (3/4 of half gallon any flavor) and place evenly over chocolate mixture. Use a knife to smooth edges together. Sprinkle with reserved 1/2 c. crumbs.
Freeze.
Enjoy the long weekend ~ and look forward to visiting with you here again on Tuesday!

Yum! I want a slice of that! Great picture!
Wow!! That sounds delish...the chocolate layer is basically like a thicker fudge-like consistancy, I'm assuming.
Enjoy your holiday ~Labor Day~ weekend with your precious family. Doing anything fun and unique? Be Safe!!
Oh wow, this sounds sindfully delicious. Printing this one off.
Have a great weekend Monica.
I like to take a package of Nutter Butter cookies, crush them up and put a layer on the bottom of a 9 x 13 (no butter) then vanilla ice cream and the rest of the crumbs. I bet that would taste wonderful with the addition of your chocolate layer.
Ice cream is a favorite around here. I will add this to my to try list.
Enjoy a wonderful, long weekend!
Loove this dessert!
Wanted to tell you I saw a box of zinc Ball canning jar narrow-mouth lids at the thrift store last night--9 for $1. Are you interested?
