Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese and mix until well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition until just blended.
Pour the cream cheese filling into the pre-made graham cracker pie crust and spread evenly with a spatula.
Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is almost set. The center should still jiggle slightly when shaken.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for 1 hour.
Once cooled, drizzle the caramel sauce over the top of the pie, spreading it evenly with a spoon or spatula.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the caramel topping.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until fully chilled.
Slice and serve the pie chilled. Optionally, garnish with whipped cream for an added touch of decadence.
