     1/4   c            Karo, light

     1/2   ts           Vanilla extract

                        -----CREPES-----
     1/2   c            Flour
   1       tb           Cocoa
   2       ts           Sugar
   1       d            Salt
     3/4   c            Milk
     1/4   ts           Almond extract
   1                    Egg
   2       ts           Butter -- melted
                        Oil

  Filling:  Combine chocolate chips and butter in the
  top of a double boiler; bring water to a boil.  Reduce
  heat to low; cook, stirring often, until chocolate
  melts.  Remove from heat.  Add confectioners' sugar,
  Karo, creme de cacao, water, and vanilla, and stir
  until smooth.
  
  Spoon about 3 tablespoons ice cream down the center of
  each cr#pe; fold sides over, and place seam side with
  on serving dishes.  Spoon warm chocolate sauce over
  each; sprinkle with pecans.
  
  Cr#pes:  Combine flour, cocoa, sugar, and salt.  Add
  milk and almond extract; beat until smooth.  Add egg
  and beat well; stir in butter. Refrigerate 2 hours.
  
  Brush bottom of a 6" cr#pe pan or heavy skillet with
  oil; place over medium heat until just hot, not
  smoking.
  
  Pour 2 tablespoons batter into pan; quickly tilt pan
  in all directions so batter covers the pan in a thin
  film.  Cook 1 minute or until lightly browned.
  
  Lift edge of cr#pe to test for doneness.  Cr#pe is
  ready for flipping when it can be shaken loose from
  the pan.  Flip the cr#pe, and cook about 30 seconds on
  the other side. (This side is rarely more than spotty
  brown, and is the side on which the filling is
  placed.) Place cr#pes on a towel to cool.  Stack
  between layers of waxed paper to prevent sticking.
  Repeat until all batter is used.
