    Gooey Chocolate-Caramel Fantasy

    2 cups chocolate wafer crumbs (about 38 wafers)
    1/3 cup butter, melted
    30 vanilla caramels
    1/2 cup caramel ice cream topping
    1/4 cup whipping cream
    2 cups chopped pecans
    3/4 cup semisweet chocolate pieces
    1/4 cup whipping cream

    In a medium mixing bowl, stir together chocolate wafer crumbs and melted butter. Press onto the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake in a 350° oven for 10 minutes. Cool slightly on a wire rack.

    In a heavy medium saucepan, melt caramels in caramel ice cream topping over low heat, stirring often. Stir in the first 1/4 cup whipping cream. Remove from heat; stir in nuts. Spread over crust. Cool; cover and chill 1 hour.

    For topping: In a heavy small saucepan, melt chocolate. Remove from heat; stir in remaining whipping cream.
