Ingredients

  • 1 sheet refrigerated pie pastry
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-1/4 cups chopped pecans
  • 1 jar (12-1/4 ounces) fat-free caramel ice cream topping
  • Additional fat-free caramel ice cream topping, optional

Directions

  • Line a 9-in. deep-dish pie plate with pastry. Trim and flute edges. In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, 1 egg and vanilla until smooth. Spread into pastry shell; sprinkle with pecans.
  • In a small bowl, whisk remaining eggs; gradually whisk in caramel topping until blended. Pour slowly over pecans.
  • Bake at 375° for 35-40 minutes or until lightly browned (loosely cover edges with foil after 20 minutes if pie browns too quickly). Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight before slicing. If desired, garnish with additional caramel ice cream topping. Yield: 6-8 servings.

This pie was such a hit at Thanksgiving that I decided to make it again for Christmas. I did and the results were disappointing to say the least. Neither pie set correctly--they came out unbelievably runny. Then I stumbled across a review of this recipe from jiminy97 on Feb. 03, 2012. They had the same results as my Christmas fiasco--runny pies. The only thing we did alike was make 2 at the same time. My guess is "for best results--prepare 1 pie at a time" should be added to the recipe.

I have made this 3 times since finding the recipe a little before thanksgiving. For the time invested it is delicious! Tastes like you spent forever in it. Yummy.

Very easy recipe. The taste was excellent. Made it for friends and they loved it! I didn't use a deep dish pie crust, I used a graham cracker pie crust because its my fav with cheesecake, and pecan pie. Because I didn't use a deep dish pie crust I used less caramel than the recipe called for, maybe 2/3 of it was used. My pie still came out like the pic and maybe even better! The one problem I did have with the recipe is the timing to leave the pie in the oven. The recipe stated 35mins. But my pie was still not done in the middle so I left it for an additional 15 mins. or so and it came out perfect with the golden brown crust. YUMMY!!

Quick, easy, delicious ... puzzling how the caramel/egg mixture sinks to the bottom during the baking. It was the hit of my 2012 Thanksgiving feast.

Do you think I can make this with a spring form pan? I dont have a pie dish...?

Everyone in my family absolutely loves this pie, and they request it every year. The first time I made it I used the wrong kind of caramel, so the layers didn't work, but it was still good. Just make sure to double check your caramel before using it. Super tasty!

SO DELICIOUS! I used a frozen deep dish pie shell and baked it on a cookie sheet. Came out PERFECT.
