Pecan Pie Cheesecake
This Pecan Pie Cheesecake combines two of my all-time favorite desserts into one mouthwatering dessert! The creamy cheesecake filling is topped with a sweet layer of caramel pecans. This easy dessert recipe is one for the record books!
Sinfully rich and oh so decadent! Fans of both desserts will love this easy recipe.
I saved time by using a frozen pie crust, but you could make your own from scratch using your favorite recipe.
I can’t decide if the best part is the rich cheesecake filling or the sweet, crunchy pecan topping. Together, they’re a match made in heaven.
I was so pleased with how this cheesecake turned out. It will be a recipe that I’ll be making again and again. I gave a few pieces to my mom and friend, who told me they were some of the best desserts I’d made. That made me happy!

I drizzled caramel sauce over the pie pieces for a layer of decadence. You could also top each piece with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
