Hi! It's Jilly. Today's delicious recipe comes from Kathy at Cornerstone Confessions. I love linking up with her Titus 2 Tuesday linky party, so I was giddy when she agreed to participate in the Fall In Love With Fall Series! She's speaking my language with this awesome cheesecake recipe! Let's check it out!
If there is
one thing I will break my diet for every time, its cheesecake. I love me some cheesecake. But making it can take a lot of time and
work. Thus, I’d often rather take a trip
to the Cheesecake Factory to pick up a few of my favorite slices than bake it,
which is probably good for my diet because that would require a bit of a
travel.
However, I
have recently grown quite fond of this Caramel Pecan Cream Cheese Pie recipe
because…
1) It’s cheesecake!
2) It’s easy and fast to make!
3) It’s virtually a no bake recipe!
Besides all
that I really like the caramel pecan topping.
It reminds me so much of fall and the picking of pecans in my parent’s
backyard. All that to say, if you love
pecans and you love cheesecake, then this recipe is for you, but be forewarned–you
may have trouble stopping with just one piece.
Enjoy!
Caramel Pecan Cream Cheese Pie
1/4 c.
pecans, chopped
1/8 c.

occasionally. Cool.

smooth. Fold in Cool Whip. Pour cream cheese mixture into graham cracker
