Ingredients List
- For the Crust:
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup sugar granulated
- 1/2 cup butter unsalted, melted
- For the Cheesecake:
- 16 oz cream cheese at room temperature (2 pkg, 8 oz each)
- 3/4 cup sugar granulated
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp salt
- For the Pecan Pie Layer:
- 1 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup butter unsalted
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups pecans chopped
Directions
Preheat your oven to 350 F degrees. Line a 9x9 inch baking dish with parchment paper, spray it first with some cooking spray so that the parchment paper will stick to it. Set aside.
For the Crust
In a food processor, pulse the graham crackers with the sugar until fine crumbs form. Add in melted butter and pulse until well combined. Press this mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. You can use your fingers, but I find it easier to just use the back of a spoon to make sure it's pressed evenly. Set aside.
For the Cheesecake
Add the cream cheese, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract and salt to the bowl of your mixer. Mix on medium using the whisk attachment until smooth, should take about 5 minutes. Pour this over graham crust and smooth it out as much as possible with a spatula. Set aside.
For the Pecan Pie Layer
Add the brown sugar, corn syrup, heavy cream, butter, salt and vanilla extract to a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Continue cooking for 1 more minute the remove from heat. Stir in the chopped pecans. Pour over the cheesecake layer, and smooth it out with a spatula if necessary.
Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 40 minutes, the pecan layer should start to get golden. Cool completely then cover with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Cut the cheesecake into slices before serving.
