WE ALL SCREAM FOR: Banana Buttered Pecan Ice Cream

I don’t know if I can describe this ice cream justly. You take a caramel base, add in bananas and then some buttered pecans (because, why not?) and you get this deliciousness. My husband has deemed it his favorite one of ALL the ice creams I have made. It is REALLLL good, yall. It’s buttery, caramel-y but with a slight fruitiness. I really just can’t describe how good it really is. You just need to scroll on through and print this recipe out and see for yourself.
