1. Preheat the oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) ๐ฅ. This will ensure your crust and cheesecake bake evenly. Grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter ๐ง or non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl ๐ฅฃ, combine the graham cracker crumbs ๐ช, granulated sugar ๐, and melted butter ๐ง. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pie dish, creating an even crust layer. Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes โณ until slightly golden. Let it cool while preparing the filling.
3. Make the cheesecake layer: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese ๐ง and granulated sugar ๐ until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Add the eggs ๐ฅ one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract ๐ฟ. Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
4. Bake the cheesecake layer: Place the pie dish in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes โณ, or until the cheesecake layer is set but still slightly jiggly in the center. Remove from the oven and let it cool while you prepare the pecan topping.
5. Prepare the pecan topping: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter ๐ง. Stir in the brown sugar ๐ฏ, corn syrup ๐ฏ, vanilla extract ๐ฟ, and salt ๐ง. Continue stirring until the mixture begins to bubble. Add the chopped pecans ๐ฐ and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the pecans to caramelize slightly and soak up the syrupy goodness.
6. Top the cheesecake: Once the cheesecake layer has cooled slightly, carefully pour the pecan topping over it, ensuring an even layer of pecans and caramelized syrup across the top. Use a spatula to spread the pecan mixture if necessary.
7. Final bake: Return the pie to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes โณ, or until the topping is set and slightly golden. Be sure not to overbake, as you want the pecan topping to remain crunchy but not burnt.
8. Cool and serve: Let the Pecan Cheesecake Pie cool completely ๐ฌ๏ธ before slicing. For the best texture, refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Enjoy your slice of creamy, crunchy indulgence with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream ๐จ for an extra treat!
