Yield 1 9-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup sugar
8 tablespoons butter, melted
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup dark corn syrup
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
24 ounces cream cheese
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 large eggs
1 cup heavy cream
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 cups toasted pecans, chopped
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar and butter. Press evenly into bottom and halfway up the side of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 6-8 minutes; set aside to cool.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt 6 tablespoons butter. Add 1/2 cup light brown sugar and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to bubble and sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in dark corn syrup, 1 1/2 cup chopped pecans, eggs, vanilla extract and salt. Pour into prepared crust; set aside.
  • In a stand mixer with paddle attachment, beat cream cheese, 1 cup light brown sugar and flour until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition until just combined. Add 1 cup heavy cream and stir until well combined. Pour over pecan pie filling and place springform pan on a baking sheet. Bake for 60-70 minutes until cake jiggles slightly when moved or toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Turn off oven and leave cake in for 1 hour, then remove from oven and let cool completely.
  • To Make the Pecan Topping:
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add brown sugar and cook until bubbling, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 1 1/2 cups toasted pecans, 1/3 cup heavy cream and pinch of salt. Let cool to room temperature then spoon over.
  • cooled cheesecake. Slice to serve or store refrigerated.
