Creating the Cheesecake Layer In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until creamy and smooth. Add the large egg to the cream cheese mixture and beat again until well combined. Spread the creamy mixture evenly over the bottom of the unbaked pie crust, creating the cheesecake layer. Making the Pecan Layer In a separate bowl, whisk together the dark corn syrup, eggs, granulated sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well blended.

Baking and Cooling To prevent the edges of the pie crust from burning, cover them with a pie shield or strips of foil. Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 50 minutes or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool for 1-2 hours. As it cools, the pie will sink slightly from its puffy state.

Freeze the lined muffin tins for 30 minutes. Bake the shortbread for 5 minutes, then rotate the tins and bake for an additional 7-9 minutes until lightly golden. Pecans: While the shortbread is baking, preheat the oven to 350 degrees again. Toast the chopped pecans for 4 minutes or until they become fragrant.

Pecan Delight Pie This delightful pecan pie offers a rich, gooey filling with a perfect balance of toasted pecans, making it an irresistible dessert for any occasion. Ingredients 1 Homemade pie crust 1 ½ cups toasted pecans, divided Filling 2 large eggs ½ cup melted unsalted butter (1 stick), not hot 1 cup packed dark brown sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract ¼ teaspoon salt Instructions Prepare the homemade pie crust according to the recipe instructions. Chill, roll out, and shape it into a 9-inch pie plate without baking it. Coarsely chop 1 cup of the toasted pecans and keep the remaining ½ cup whole. If you prefer a higher filling-to-pecan ratio, you may choose to use only 1 cup of pecans in total. Spread the chopped pecans evenly into the rolled-out pie crust and place the pie dish in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling. Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, whisk together all the filling ingredients until very smooth, thick, and creamy. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust and arrange the reserved ½ cup whole pecans on top in your desired pattern. Bake the pie in the oven for 10 minutes. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and continue baking for an additional 35 to 45 minutes, until the pie is only slightly jiggly and the center feels soft when touched. If the pecans are browning too quickly, cover the pie loosely with foil. Note: The pie will puff up and may split during baking, but it will deflate as it cools. Allow the pie to cool completely for at least 2 to 4 hours to let the custard set. Slice and serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
