The BEST, EASIEST dessert...

 Ree Drummond's Easy Caramel Sauce:

1 packed cup brown sugar
1/2 cup half and half
4 TBSP butter
pinch salt
1 TBSP vanilla extract

Mix the sugar, half and half, butter and salt in a sauce pan over medium low heat.  Cook while whisking gently for 5-7 mins, until it gets thicker.  Add the vanilla and cook another minute to thicken further.  Turn off heat and cool slightly.  Pour sauce in to a jar and refrigerate until cold.

Then, when dessert time, take fresh pears, pealed and halved or use home canned pears.  In a bowl put in a scoop (or lets be honest, 2 or 3) of vanilla ice cream, add a few pear halves and then warm up the caramel sauce and pour some of that over the ice cream and pears.... It's amazing.  Seriously.  So good.  And did I mention EASY PEASY!!!????!
