Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 3 Large eggs
- 2 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Light corn syrup
- 1 cup Brown sugar (packed)
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1.5 cups Pecan halves
- 1 Pre-made pie crust
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan and crimp the edges as desired. Set aside.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Add 1 egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture. Mix until fully combined and smooth. Spread this mixture evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie crust.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 eggs, the remaining 3/4 cup of granulated sugar, the corn syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, and the remaining 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 5
Gently fold in the pecan halves into the sugar mixture until evenly coated.
Step 6
Carefully pour the pecan mixture over the cream cheese layer in the pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Step 7
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any potential drips and bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the center is set and only slightly jiggly.
Step 8
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the layers to fully set.
Step 9
Slice and serve chilled or at room temperature. Enjoy your Cream Cheese Pecan Pie!
