This Caramel Crunch Dessert is crazy delicious! It is like an ice cream pie, but made in a springform pan so it’s even more pretty. It makes a stunning presentation. Of course if you don’t have a springform pan, you can actually make it in two pie pans instead. Not quite as stunning, but every bit as tasty.

  1. Hi!

    I have a question. Is it 1 lb 14 oz of condensed milk? I am from the netherlands so i have to change some measurements 😉

    Thank you

    • I haven’t made this yet – but I sure plan to! I’m sure she means 1 can of sweetened condensed milk. They’re typically 14 ounces each. One pound 14 oz. would put someone into diabetic shock! Hahaha :).

  2. Right here is the right site for anyone who would like to find out about
    this topic. You realize a whole lot its almost hard
    to argue with you (not that I personally would want to…HaHa).
    You certainly put a brand new spin on a subject that’s been discussed for many
    years. Excellent stuff, just great!

    • Ours got eaten pretty fast, so I can’t say for sure, but if you wrap it up airtight it should last a week or two. Maybe longer, depending on how well it’s wrapped.

  4. I made this over the past weekend. I baked the bottom and brickle after dinner Sat and did the filling Sun morning about 8:30. We had it about 5:30 Sunday evening. We did the 15 minute warm up the first time, but on subsequent times we found it cut better right out of the freeze . It is a very enjoyable desert. It does take will power to not eat the brickle by itself as it is cooling.

    • Butter Brickle Crunch was just the name of the crumbly topping in the recipe I got from a friend, so I kept the name just because it sounded good. LOL!
