Ingredients
1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/3 cup powdered sugar
16 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 1/2 cups pecans, chopped
1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
-
Blind bake the pie crust according to package directions. Let it cool completely.
-
In a bowl, beat the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
-
In a separate bowl, mix the cream cheese, brown sugar, maple syrup, and salt until smooth.
-
Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
-
Stir in 1 cup of chopped pecans.
-
Spread the mixture evenly into the cooled crust and top with remaining pecans.
-
Chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
Try a graham cracker or chocolate cookie crust for a twist.
A splash of bourbon adds a boozy depth of flavor.
Swap maple syrup with honey if preferred.
Store covered in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Don’t freeze—the creamy texture doesn’t hold up well.
Let the pie sit out for a few minutes before slicing for cleaner cuts.
