Caramel Pecan Cheesecake Pie

Christmas time = pie time!

It’s just not the holidays unless you are eating pie. My all time favorite pie is Pecan Pie and my all time favorite dessert is Cheesecake. This pie is the best of both worlds. In my opinion, you can’t go wrong when combining these 2 yummy desserts into one.

Let me be honest…my favorite thing about writing this blog post besides the pie is figuring out how to add a slide show displaying the steps of the pie!

I still think it’s amazing that you pour the caramel on last and to the point that you can’t tell there is anything else in the pie shell. Then, in my wonderful magical oven, all is revealed…well, after about 40 mins of cook time that is. The caramel sinks and the pecans come through.

Caramel Pecan Cheesecake Pie will take the place of your original pecan pie! You must see the steps!

As you can see this pie is very easy to make. I like how pretty the pie turns out when you place the halved pecans in a circle but you can also used chopped pecans sprinkled evenly on the top. This may save you a little time. As you notice in the recipe this dessert needs to be refrigerated so it’s a great make ahead option as well.
