Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup sifted powdered sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups pecans, finely chopped
  • 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • crust for a 9-inch pie, unbaked
  • 1 cup heavy cream for whipping

Instructions

  • Bake the 9-inch pie crust according to package instructions until golden brown. Let it cool completely on a wire rack.
  • In a medium bowl, combine heavy cream and powdered sugar. Whip until stiff peaks form to create a light and airy whipped cream.
  • In another bowl, blend softened cream cheese, light brown sugar, and maple syrup until smooth and lump-free.
  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Add 1 cup of finely chopped pecans and mix until well combined.
  • Spread the creamy pecan mixture into the pre-baked pie crust. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of chopped pecans on top for added crunch.
  • Cover the pie and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight, to allow flavors to meld and filling to set.

Notes

Refrigerate in a lidded container to maintain texture and flavor. Can be frozen for longer storage, thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
