Instructions:

1. Prepare the Campechanas:

  • Break the campechanas into bite-sized pieces and set them aside. These flaky pastries add a delightful crunch to our dessert.

2. Layer the Ice Cream:

  • In a large mixing bowl, soften the vanilla ice cream slightly by leaving it out at room temperature for a few minutes. Once softened, fold in the campechana pieces until evenly distributed.

3. Assemble the Dessert:

  • In a serving dish or individual cups, start layering the ice cream mixture. Begin with a generous spoonful of the ice cream and campechana mix.

4. Drizzle with Cajeta:

  • Warm the cajeta slightly to make it easier to drizzle. Pour a generous amount over the ice cream layer. The sweet and creamy cajeta complements the vanilla ice cream perfectly.

5. Add the Pecans:

  • Sprinkle a handful of chopped pecans over the cajeta layer. The pecans add a satisfying crunch and a nutty flavor that balances the sweetness of the dessert.

6. Repeat the Layers:

  • Continue layering the ice cream mixture, cajeta, and pecans until you've used all your ingredients. Finish with a final drizzle of cajeta and a sprinkle of pecans on top.

7. Garnish and Serve:

  • For an extra touch of elegance, top with a dollop of whipped cream and fresh berries. Serve immediately or freeze for a firmer texture.
