In fall or any time of year, this nutty, rich and delicious pie is one I am proud to serve. While it seems very special, it's a snap to make. —Becky Ruff, Monona, Iowa

  • Yield: 6-8 Servings
15 35 50

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.

    Editor’s Note: This recipe was tested with Smucker’s ice cream topping.

Every time I've made this recipe for family dinners, there is NEVER a piece left! I've started making two so my husband and I will have some...is even better days after being made! And it is sooooo easy to make!

I have made this pie for every family gathering, church dinners and for special events. It is the easiest and best of all desserts! It is always the first pie plate emptied at pot-luck dinners and guests marvel at it's appearance and taste! Everyone will think you spend hours preparing it!!!

Doesn't the recipe say to put the yellow filling in first? The picture shows the caramel filling having been put in first.

I definitely will make this recipe again. It is a delicious pie, wonderful taste and texture. I have prepared and carried the pie to several gatherings. Was enjoyed by all an there were no leftovers. After reading several of the ratings, the problem may be the baking temperature used was not as printed as well as the proper chilling time. My pies always look like the picture

you show.

I've made this several times but have to add much more baking time to get the center cream cheese set. Also, I had to use a deep dish pie crust and still had caramel mixture left over.

But everyone loves it so I will keep making adjustments.

If I could give this 7 stars I would. I love it and my friends love it even more. Great rave reviews from all that have had it.

For the one that said that the texture was like scrambled eggs, maybe the eggs weren't beaten long enough. I use an immersion blender on it and it is smooth as silk.

This will be a year round go to recipe church luncheons and at work too.

Has anyone made this pi ahead of time and frozen it? I would like to make it for Christmas and freeze it.
