     This is definitely one of those rare occasion desserts!!!  High in Fat, High in Flavor and Low in Carbs.  So every once in a while, go crazy on a Holiday and have a sliver!!!  This makes 10 servings, (macros are not including Pecan garnish or Cool Whip topping), each slice has 307 calories, 3.3g net carbs and 8g protein.  Go slow and savor every bite!!!  ;)
