Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup Caramel sauce
- 1 cup Pecan halves
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix well to form a sandy mixture.
Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Use the flat bottom of a glass to compact the crust. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill for at least 10 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Fold the whipped cream gently into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated. Spread this filling evenly over the chilled crust.
Drizzle the caramel sauce evenly over the cream cheese filling, spreading it gently with a spoon if necessary.
Top the pie with the pecan halves, arranging them in a decorative pattern if desired.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until firm. For best results, refrigerate overnight.
Serve chilled. Slice and enjoy!
