Ingredients

• 1 cup Pecans
• 1 cup Brown sugar
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 cup Whipped topping
• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 5 tablespoons Melted butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix well until the crumbs are evenly coated.

Step 3

Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of an 8x8-inch baking dish to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then let it cool completely.

Step 4

To make the praline topping, heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add pecans, brown sugar, and 4 tablespoons of butter. Stir the mixture continuously until the sugar melts and coats the pecans, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and let the pralines cool on parchment paper.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, beat together softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.

Step 6

In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream with vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.

Step 7

Pour the cream cheese filling over the cooled crust, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.

Step 8

Just before serving, whip the remaining 1 cup of heavy cream to stiff peaks and spread on top of the cream cheese layer.

Step 9

Sprinkle the praline pecan mixture over the whipped cream layer as the finishing touch.

Step 10

Slice, serve, and enjoy your Pralines Cream Dream!
