Frozen Turtle Dessert

My friend, Heather, made this for our 4th of July celebration yesterday and it did not disappoint (and it's EASY).  Delish!

-17 ice cream sandwiches
-1 jar of caramel
-1 1/4 cups of pecans, (Oreos can be substituted for pecans.  This is how I have had it.  Yum!)
-1 (12 ounces) Cool Whip
-Hot fudge

Place 8 1/2 ice cream sandwiches in a 9X13 inch baking dish. Spread evenly with caramel and sprinkle with 1 cup pecans (or Oreos). Top with 2 cups cool whip and remaining ice cream sandwiches. Spread remaining cool whip evenly over sandwiches. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup pecans. Cover and freeze at least 2 hours.  Let stand 5 minutes before serving; cut into squares.
Drizzle with fudge.

Note the chocolate smudges on Adam's lips...I think he snuck some bites of Oreos when I wasn't looking.  ;)
