  sheet or foil; separate into clusters. Cool. Break
  clusters into small chunks.
  
  In a large mixing bowl combine cream, brown sugar, and
  vanilla; stir until sugar is dissolved. Stir in pecan
  mixture and whipping cream. Pour cream mixture into a
  4- to 5-quart ice cream freezer container.
  
  Freeze mixture according to the manufacturer's
  directions, using crushed ice and rock salt.
  
  Makes about 3 1/2 quarts or 24 servings.
