WYATT'S CAFETERIA PECAN DELIGHT PIE
During the 80's the Star-Telegram newspaper was flooded with requests for anything and everything Wyatt's Cafeteria made. They printed as many of the recipes as they could get. This pie was my favorite at the cafeteria, so light and delicious. (Sorry recipe does not have how hot you need to cook, maybe 350, I don't remember now how hot I cooked it.)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F.
- Let egg whites come to room temperature.
- Butter a 9-inch pie pan. Mix together crackers, pecans and baking powder. Set aside.
- In large bowl, beat egg whites on low speed with electric mixer until foamy. Add cream of tarter, increase mixer speed to medium and beat until soft peaks form.
- Continue beating while gradually adding sugar to mixture. Then increase speed to high and beat, scraping sides of bowl often until stiff peaks form. Mixture will be stiff and glossy.
- Beat in vanilla. Fold in cracker-pecan mixture. Spread mixture evenly in buttered pie pan and bake on middle rack of oven for 40 minutes.
- Let pie completely on wire rack. Don't worry if pie cracks and falls a bit as it cools.
- Cover and refrigerate cooled pie until ready to serve.
- Before serving, prepare topping by whipping cream until it begins to thicken. Add powdered sugar and vanilla and continue beating until cream is thick and forms soft peaks.
- Spread sweetened whipped cream on top of cooled pie and sprinkle 1/4 cup pecans evenly over the cream.
- Leftover pie should be covered and stored in refrigerator.

PECAN DELIGHT PIE
A delightful pie, as the name suggests. Great dessert and not too heavy. No one would ever believe much of the filler is saltine crackers, and it makes its own crust!

CARAMEL PECAN DELIGHT PIE
This is a great summer pie to have. And, because you make 2, you will have one in the freezer to save for later!

Steps:
- 1. In a skillet, combine pecans, coconut, butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Cook until the pecans and coconut are toasted or browned. Put aside and allow to cool completely.
- 2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, and condensed milk. Next mix in the cool whip. Divide this mixture into the 2 pie shells.
- 3. Place the pies in the freezer about 30 minutes. Remove from freezer and cover each pie with the pecan/coconut mixture equally.
- 4. Drizzle each pie with 1/2 the jar of caramel ice cream topping. Can drop some extra chopped pecans on top for garnish. Return pies to the freezer for about an hour before slicing and serving.
CARAMEL PECAN DELIGHT PIE! RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:
- In a skillet lightly brown the pecans and coconut in the butter. Set aside to cool. With an electric mixer blend the cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk and whipped topping. Divide evenly between the two pie crusts. Top each with half of the pecan and coconut mixture. Drizzle the entire jar of caramel ice cream topping over the tops of both pies. Refrigerate or freeze for at least 3 - 4 hours. I think they cut best if you freeze them.
