How to Make Five Layer Pecan Pie
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Gently press one 9-inch unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate.
- Evenly sprinkle 1 ½ cups pecan halves into the pie crust.
- Sprinkle ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips over the pecans.
- Drizzle ¼ cup caramel topping over the chocolate chips.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), ½ cup sour cream, ½ cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
- Add 2 large eggs, beating on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Carefully pour the cream cheese mixture over the caramel layer in the pie crust.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the center is set and the crust is golden brown. A knife inserted near the center should come out clean.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld.
- Sift a light dusting of unsweetened cocoa powder over the pie before serving, if desired.
