Pumpkin Ice Cream Cake

Crust:

3 cups pecans, finely chopped

1/2 cup brown sugar

3 tablespoons butter, melted

Filling:

2 1/2 cups chilled whipping cream, divided use

1 cup brown sugar

8 large egg yolks

1 1/2 cups pumpkin, canned, solid packed

1/2 cup light corn syrup

3 tablespoons dark rum

1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger

3/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Topping:

5 1/2 ounces pecan halves

12 ounces prepared caramel topping

Preheat oven to 350.

Crust: Finely chop nuts and sugar in a processor.

Add butter and pulse until moist crumbs form. Sprinkle over the bottom of a 9-inch spring form pan, patting evenly. Freeze 10 minutes.

Bake crust until golden, about 10 minutes. Cool completely. Take a sheet of aluminum foil and wrap securely around the outside of pan. Set aside.

Filling: Whisk 1 cup cream, sugar and yolks in heavy medium saucepan. Stir constantly over medium heat until candy thermometer registers 160 degrees, about 6 minutes. Strain into large bowl.

Using electric mixer, beat mixture until cool and slightly thickened, about 8 minutes.

Beat in pumpkin, corn syrup, rum and spices.

Using electric mixer, in a separate large mixing bowl, beat remaining 1 1/2 cups cream to stiff peaks.

Very slowly whisk a stream of custard into the whipped cream, being careful that the whipped volume of the mixture is as high as possible.

Transfer filling to crust. Cover and freeze until firm, preferably at least 8 hours.

Topping: Arrange pecans side by side in a circular patter atop torte. Drizzle caramel as evenly as possible over top. Spread evenly with a rubber spatula.

Freeze again until caramel sets, about 3 hours.

Run a sharp knife completely around pan sides to loosen torte. Release pan sides and serve.
