This is a very refreshing summer dessert. I dipped into the creme fraiche first, then the nuts, and THEN the sauce. Adapted from Bon Appétit, August 2005. Hope you enjoy! Ingredients:

1/2 cup chopped toasted pecans |
6 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1 cup dark brown sugar |
2 tablespoons water |
2 1/2 tablespoons dark rum |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
fresh fruit (such as grapes, berries, cherries, and plum and peach wedges) |
Directions:
1. Beat together in medium bowl, then transfer to small serving bowl the first 2 ingredients. 2. Place pecans in a small serving bowl: 3. Melt butter in nonstick skillet over medium heat. 4. Increase heat to medium-high and addthe brown sugar and water. 5. Stir sugar and water 1 minute (mixture will bubble vigorously), then stir in: 6. the rum and vanilla. 7.
