INGREDIENTS
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Prepare the pie crust according to the package instructions for a one-crust pie using a 9-inch deep dish pie plate. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer at medium speed to blend cream cheese, one egg, 1/4 cup sugar, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well blended. Spread this mixture evenly across the bottom of the crust and bake for 15 minutes.
In another large bowl, whisk together the remaining two eggs and 1/2 cup sugar until smooth. Incorporate the corn syrup, melted butter, the remaining 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, and salt, stirring until everything is well combined. Evenly distribute the toasted pecan pieces over the pre-baked cream cheese layer. Gradually pour the corn syrup mixture over the pecans.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the center of the pie is just set. Allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
