Absolutely delicious! However, found that I had more egg&corn syrup mixture than the pie shell could hold. Next time, I would only use 3/4 of the cream cheese mixture so I could get more of the other in. Also, it doesn't specify (and for those of you like me who may want everything spelled out), do not bake the pie crust first - use an uncooked crust. One more thing, serve cold - the day after baking is GREAT!!! WE ALL LOVED IT.

The first time I made this I was a little skeptical. I love pecan pie and wasn't sure how it would turn it. When I started mixing the cream cheese and other ingredients it was really think. I've never seen cream cheese be used with out any eggs. I had also used dark corn syrup rather than light, but it actually turned out pretty good. A little bit of FYI: the cream cheese comes up to the top so don't be surprised if your pie looks a little puffy. Also don't put too much syrup into it 'cause it'll overflow and cause a big mess.

I hate to give such a low rating, and I realize I'm in the minority here, but I disliked this pie. I mean, I tried a slice warm and it was not good, so I put it in the fridge overnight thinking maybe it would be better cold. Nope There was no sweetness- I mean none. I was expecting a cheesecake type layer topped with pecans and a custard, but the cream cheese rose to the top and mixed with everything else, and didn't taste anything like a cheesecake. Also, the edges of my crust burnt, but the bottom stayed soggy- probably due to the cream cheese/custard glob. Real pecan pie and real cheesecake are 10x better.

I'm new to baking so i didnt know the tricks to keep from overdoing the crust when making custard pies, but it still turned out pretty good :) Can't wait to try again now that i know to move to a higher rack and put aluminum foil on the crust.

My sister usually doesn't like pecan pie, but she loved this one. Mom said this is the best pecan pie she's ever had because it is sooo creamy.

This was Perfect. I made this for christmas as a spur of the moment dessert. I am very glad I did. The bottom crust didnt cook as well as I would have liked, But that was my fault. the cooking time might be a little off, I think it needs to cook a little longer. I suggest you use a glass pie pan & pie crust sheets. That way you can judge when your bottom crust is browned. THIS IS A EXCELLENT RECIPE ,I WILL MAKE A FAMILY TRADITION!!!! tip* MAKE MORE THAN ONE.........LOL

It was "ok". I made this for Thanksgiving hoping for a new twist on Pecan Pie. No one went for seconds and it was the last leftover in the fridge a few days later. It was ok but just nothing special or intersting about the taste - almost (not quite but almost) bland. I suggest if you want pecan pie, make Pecan Pie!

I'd give this 10 stars if I could. Wonderful change from the usual pecan pie. You must make this in a deep dish pie plate, because there is a lot of filling. I also didn't follow the recipe exactly. I like how the pecan halves llok, so I did not chop them, also I poured them into the corn syrup mixture and stirred them up before pouring onto the cream cheese layer. From the top, looked like a regular pecan pie, but with a delightful surprise on the bottom. My family voted and wants me to only make this pecan pie from now on. Not as sweet as the traditional, but defintely good and rich. Thank you for sharing this recipe!

I really hate to give this such a low rating-- maybe it was me... but... I agree with user BN61079... this pie did not turn out for me. The edges burnt, the cream cheese stuff didn't look like cheesecake at all, and we couldn't even get it out of the pie dish. I was so disgusted with how the pie turned out, I didn't even taste it. My husband tried it and said it was good, but he eats literally anything. I won't make this one again!
