Two pies in one: spicy pecan and tender cheesecake. Comes out of the oven with the layers switched! Looks like a cheesecake but a surprise is underneath.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (9 inch) pie shell
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
⅓ cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ⅓ cups chopped pecans
3 eggs, beaten
1 cup light corn syrup
¼ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground cloves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add 1/3 cup sugar and beat until smooth. Thoroughly mix in 1 egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Do not overbeat. Spread mixture into pastry shell. Sprinkle with chopped pecans.
  • In a medium bowl, combine 3 beaten eggs, corn syrup, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, salt, cinnamon, and cloves. Mix until incorporated but not frothy. Pour mixture over pecan layer.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 35 to 45 minutes, until filling is set and pecans are browned. Pie will be quite high, but will settle as it cools.

I found that the crust was a bit too crumbly for my taste, but the filling was delicious.
