Just looking at those pecans in a bowl makes me anxious for Thanksgiving and to enjoy this yummy cheesecake recipe again.

This pecan pie cheesecake is flavored and layered with the brown sugar sauce and pecans.

The cheesecake makes a perfect base for the sugary, sweet pecan glaze and topping. It offers a clean palette for all that flavor.

It helps provide a smooth texture so it’s not an overly sugary bite, like traditional pecan pie can be.

Then you’ll add the pecan glaze topping, which is an amazing accent flavor to pair with your cheesecake.

Plus, when you cut into the cheesecake, the glaze will drip down the sides of the slice that makes you want to take a bite, and then lick the plate.

This easy pecan pie cheesecake will be the hit of your gathering. It's a cinch to make in a graham cracker crust with added layers of cheesecake and the traditional pecan pie topping you love.

Ingredients

  • Crust:
  • 1 sleeve graham crackers, or 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 stick butter (4 tbls)
  • Cheesecake:
  • 2 blocks cream cheese (8 oz each)
  • 1 cup brown sugar

  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 stick butter (4 tbls)
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup crushed/chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Crush graham crackers and mix with melted butter. Spread in a pie pan, pressing to make a firm crust coating the bottom and sides of the pan.
  2. Bake graham cracker crust for 10 mins at 325* F. Once out, make sure the crust is still packed tightly. 
  3. Mix all of the cheesecake ingredients together (cream cheese, brown sugar, flour, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla) using an electric mixer until evenly blended. 
  4. Pour mixture into pie pan on top of graham cracker crust. Bake at 325* F for 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center jiggles slightly. Set aside to cool. 
  5. Melt brown sugar and butter for topping in a small pan over medium heat until bubbly, stirring frequently. Pour in heavy cream and pecans, continue to stir for an additional 1-2 minutes. 
  6. Remove from heat, let cool for 5 minutes, then spread over cheesecake. 
  7. Serve warm or cooled.

      Fridge is best for cheesecake as it’s made with cream cheese!

    Can the pre-made graham cracker crust be used in place of making it homemade?

    You did not say how many pieces or servings per pie. You said 1 slice is 562 calories but is this 1/2, 1/4, 1/6, 1/8, 1/10th of pie. Please specify.

    The recipe calls for sour cream but I didn’t see them put any in when I watched the video.
